Abstract
Hemangiomas are among the most common neoplasms of childhood and often found on the face, head, and neck. In a society that places great importance on physical appearance, sustaining a hemangioma can significantly influence the psychosocial development of children. The purpose of this article is to briefly discuss the etiology of hemangiomas and provide practical suggestions for educators, health care professionals, and parents to foster the psychosocial development of children with a hemangioma.Keywords
