What to do with penile hemangioma

Speaking of penile hemangioma, many people may not be familiar with it. In fact, penile hemangioma is also a common disease, belonging to the category of hemangioma. For patients, of course, timely treatment after the disease is discovered can avoid greater harm. So, what should we do about penile hemangioma? Next, let's learn about the relevant knowledge of penile hemangioma.

Hazards: It may cause the male penis to become thicker, the scrotum surface to become rough, and even lead to disability.

Treatment methods: ① surgical resection; ② cryotherapy; ③ radiation and isotope therapy; ④ sclerotherapy; ⑤ laser therapy; ⑥ copper needle therapy for hemangioma.

1. Surgical treatment: surgical methods are used to remove the damaged tissue to achieve the purpose of treatment. It is effective for independent and relatively small lesions. Generally, the lesion area is rich in blood vessels and has a large amount of blood. The amount of bleeding during surgery is extremely large, often causing severe hemorrhagic shock. A large amount of whole blood needs to be transfused during the operation. The operation is difficult and dangerous. At the same time, since the blood after bleeding is often not completely Resection means forced termination of the surgery, so the recurrence rate after surgery is very high. After surgical removal of part of the tumor, the tumor will be deformed, missing and dysfunctional. The cost of surgery is expensive, which is an unbearable burden for patients. Facial capillary hemangioma can be combined with cosmetic skin transplantation to repair the damaged area. Therefore, surgical treatment should strictly control the indications and weigh the value of surgery before deciding whether to choose surgical treatment.

2. Cryotherapy: This method is used for hemangioma (small-scale superficial lesions can be used as appropriate) 3. Radiation and isotope therapy: The treatment principle is to use the r-rays produced by radioactive elements to bombard the nuclei of the tissue cells in the damaged area to break the DNA chain and RNA chain, terminate the synthesis of nuclear protein, cause cell death and disintegration, and then achieve the treatment purpose through the tissue repair process. Commonly used clinical methods include: superficial X-ray irradiation, local irradiation with cobalt 60, strontium 40 External application of film, local injection of phosphorus 32 colloid, etc. After treatment, the treated area will leave atrophic scars due to radiation damage, and the epidermis will desquamate. For this kind of atrophic tissue and atrophic scars caused by radiation exposure, experts recommend surgical excision, otherwise the possibility of cancer cannot be ruled out. Experts believe that radiotherapy should be avoided as much as possible during the treatment of hemangioma.

Nursing:

Patients with hemangiomas should pay special attention to protecting the hemangioma site at work and in life, and try to reduce friction as much as possible to prevent the hemangioma from rupturing and bleeding. Once the hemangioma ruptures, pressure should be applied in time to stop the bleeding. For wounds with larger wounds, more bleeding, and contaminated wounds, such as firearm wounds, open fractures, small but deep wounds from wood splinters or rusty wounds, and small but deep burns, once these conditions occur, you must go to a regular hospital for wound treatment in time and get a tetanus vaccine according to the injury.

The above is an introduction to what to do with penile hemangioma. What needs to be reminded here is that while taking the correct approach, for patients, if they want to recover completely, they also need to actively do a good job of rehabilitation care and relieve negative emotions in time, so that they can recover faster.
