Abstract
Infantile hemangiomas (IHs) with minimal or arrested growth differ from standard IHs in that they have a reduced or absent growth phase. An association between IHs with minimal or arrested growth and superimposed eczematous dermatitis has not been described in the literature. We present a case detailing this association in which an IH with minimal or arrested growth responded well to treatment with propranolol and the superimposed eczema cleared completely with topical hydrocortisone.Entities:
