Screening for LUMBAR syndrome in babies with hemangiomas
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study screens babies who have infantile hemangiomas (common birthmarks made of blood vessels) in certain areas of the lower body to see if they might have LUMBAR syndrome, a rare condition that can cause other health issues. The goal is to detect and address any related problems early.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby has been diagnosed with infantile hemangioma, a type of birthmark.
- The hemangioma is located on the lower back, buttocks, genitals, or anus area, or extends to the leg.
- The hemangioma is at least 2 cm wide.
- You or your legal guardian agree to let your baby participate by signing a consent form.

This study looks at babies with a common birthmark called infantile hemangioma (made of blood vessels) to help doctors decide the best treatment or whether monitoring is enough. It involves a first evaluation and follow-up, but no new drugs or procedures are tested.
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 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 tests whether new imaging techniques (called MSOT and ULM) can better see vascular malformations. It may help doctors diagnose and understand these conditions without the need for risky procedures.
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.
This trial is for people who have been diagnosed with an aggressive spinal hemangioma, a non-cancerous tumor in the spine that can cause pain or nerve problems. It aims to study the condition and possibly test treatments to help manage symptoms.
