A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Platelet-Rich Plasma, Low-Level Laser Therapy, and Complex Decongestive Physiotherapy in Patients with Lower Limb Lymphedema.

abstract：:Hemangiomas of infancy are very common tumors, but they are heterogeneous in their behavior. A small, but significant, subset causes medical complications or permanent disfigurement, but due to their heterogeneity, there is no appropriate "one size fits all" approach to management. In addition, the rapid evolution of ...
