[The surgical treatment cavernous haemangioma of the soft tissues in the orofaciale region (author's transl)].

The experience gathered in therapy of 85 cavernous haemangioma allows to make the following conclusions: -The therapy of canernous haemangioma is very flexible. Localisation, expansion, increasing, aesthetical and functional troubles determine the indication for the therapeutical way. -Cavernous haemangioma must be operated in early infancy. The complete excision is the best method. The conservative control only with the outlook of a spontanremission is unsafe. -Big haemangioma will be treated by a combined treatment (destroying of blood vessels + surgical therapy). After injection of sclerosing solutions it is possible to exstirpate the haemangioma completely. -Extensive plastic and reconstructive operations will be done first after age of twenty years. The use of adjacent flaps shows suitable results.
