AB Infantile  hemangioma  (IH),  also  known  as  strawberry,  capillary,  or  cavernous  hemangioma,  is  a  benign  endothelial  proliferation  that  represents  the  most  common  tumor  in  infancy.  It  can  be  classified  into  superficial  hemangioma  (SH,  55%  of  cases),  deep  hemangioma  (DH,  30%  of  cases),  and  mixed  superficial  and  deep  hemangioma  (MH,  15%  of  cases).  They  occur  most  commonly  on  head  and  neck  areas.
