Rebound Growth of Infantile Hemangiomas after Propranolol versus Atenolol Treatment: A Retrospective Study
The incidence of rebound growth was similar following treatment with two oral β-receptor blockers. Treatment initiation after the age of 5 months and long duration of treatment may increase the risk for regrowth. These findings should be further investigated as they may impact clinical decisions on treating IH.
