[Epidemiological characteristics and surgical treatment of inpatients with superficial hemangioma in Shandong province from 2019 to 2020].

Abstract

The epidemiological characteristics and surgical treatment of inpatients with superficial hemangioma in Shandong province were investigated and analyzed. The first-page medical records of hospitalized patients with superficial hemangioma from 2019 to 2020 reported by all secondary and above medical institutions in Shandong province were selected from the National Health Information Platform of Shandong province to analyze their population characteristics and surgical treatment. A total of 3 775 patients with superficial hemangioma were included, with the age of [M(Q₁, Q₃)] 3.0(0, 33.0)years, including 1 419 males (37.6%) and 2 356 females (62.4%). The head and neck superficial hemangioma accounted for the highest proportion of 37.8% (1 425/3 775), followed by limbs 34.5% (1 302/3 775) and trunk 24.4% (922/3 775). Infants accounted for the highest proportion of 37.2% (1 406/3 775). There were 2 874 (76.1%) patients with superficial hemangioma received surgical treatment, and the proportion of male patients receiving surgery was higher than that of female patients[78.2%(1 110/1 419) vs 74.9%(1 764/2 356), P=0.019]. The proportion of patients receiving surgery increased with age (P_trend<0.001). In terms of different parts, the proportion of patients with superficial hemangioma in the limbs who received surgery was the highest at 86.2%(1 123/1 302) (P<0.001). The majority of the surgical operations were secondary surgery (55.8%, 1 110/1 988), elective surgery (91.4%, 1 818/1 988), class Ⅰ incision (53.5%, 1 338/2 501), and general anesthesia (50.9%, 1 219/2 397). The main treatment method was resection (48.1%, 1 816/3 775). The study found that the majority of inpatients with superficial hemangioma in Shandong province were mostly in head and neck, with more females than males, and infants being the main group, and surgical treatment was the main treatment.
