Description | These cases illustrate the benefits of combined treatment including thalidomide and interferon alpha in patients with multiple angiomatosis or large proliferating hemangioma (vascular malformation). If combined treatment with thalidomide and interferon a is not possible, it is beneficial to use thalidomide monotherapy. Radiotherapy is another alternative, although it is necessary to apply doses exceeding 50 Gy which may not be always possible. |
