Screening for LUMBAR Syndrome in Infants With Hemangiomas
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study screens infants with infantile hemangiomas (common benign blood vessel growths) in the lower body area to check for LUMBAR syndrome, a rare condition affecting multiple body systems. Early detection may help guide your child's care and monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your infant has been clinically diagnosed with an infantile hemangioma (a benign blood vessel growth)
- The hemangioma is located in the lower back, tailbone, buttocks, perineal, or genital area, or extends down the leg
- The largest part of the hemangioma is at least 2 centimeters (about 0.8 inches) across
- You are willing to provide written consent and allow your child to complete screening examinations
- Your child does not have other types of vascular malformations (different kinds of blood vessel abnormalities)
- Your child does not have other genetic or congenital syndromes that would complicate the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at babies with a type of birthmark called infantile hemangioma (including those that barely grow or have stopped growing). Researchers want to understand the risks and decide on the best treatment.
This trial tests a medicine called bleomycin, injected into lymphatic malformations (abnormal fluid-filled growths) to shrink them. It is for children under 14 whose malformations are growing quickly, causing symptoms or problems, and cannot be removed by surgery alone.
This study uses two advanced imaging techniques (MSOT and ULM) to better see and understand vascular malformations. It may help doctors diagnose these conditions more accurately.
This early-phase study tests a special ultrasound with an added contrast medicine (Lumason) during surgery for babies with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). It aims to better see blood flow at the time of surgery, which may help guide and improve care.
This study is testing a treatment for people with aggressive spinal hemangiomas—blood vessel growths in the spine that cause pain, weakness, or other symptoms. You may benefit if your hemangioma is causing problems and has been confirmed by imaging tests.
This trial uses a special ultrasound with contrast to study fluid on the brain (hydrocephalus) in newborn babies. The aim is to learn more about the condition and improve treatment options.
