Single‐nucleotide polymorphisms of <i> <scp>VEGF</scp> ‐A </i> and <i> <scp>VEGFR</scp> ‐2 </i> genes and risk of infantile hemangioma

Abstract

In our study, none of the investigated VEGF-A and VEGFR-2 genes polymorphisms was found to be an independent prognostic marker for infantile hemangioma. However, there is evidence that individuals carrying at least one G allele of +405 G/C VEGF-A polymorphism have significantly lower risk of IH.
