Although it involutes spontaneously, outcomes are unpredictable. Intralesional therapy is one of its treatment modality. We present our experience with combined intralesional therapy for IHs over a 5-year duration. A total of 427 patients were treated and followed at Al-Azhar University Hospitals during the study period of 5 years. All patients were treated by intralesional therapy in the form of combined injection of triamcinolone and bleomycin. All patients were followed for the response. Response to the treatment was graded as marked, partial, and poor improvement. SN - 2090-5394 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s43159-019-0008-6 DO - 10.1186/s43159-019-0008-6 ID - Helal2019 ER -
