BERDION SEVILLA, Enrique  e  HERNANDEZ VIEL, Valia. The propranolol revolutionizes the treatment of hemangiomas in childhood. MEDISAN [online]. 2013, vol.17, n.7, pp. 2065-2067. ISSN 1029-3019.

The use of propranolol as a treatment option to cure or mitigate the hemangiomas in children was briefly reported. Although the mechanism by which the drug acts in these benign tumors is not very well-known, it is thought that it can be related to the control of cellular hypoxia, induction of endothelial cell apoptosis and inhibition of endothelial and fibroblast growth factor.
