Abstract | We present the case of a 3-week-old girl with LUMBAR syndrome, a rare condition involving segmental infantile hemangiomas (IH) in the lumbosacral region, myelopathy, and other congenital anomalies. The patient developed severe ulceration of a left buttock IH. Treatment included broad-spectrum antibiotics, debridement, and a laparoscopic temporary colostomy. Propranolol therapy, wound care, and fecal diversion led to successful healing of the ulceration. The report highlights the challenges of ulcerated IH in the perineal area due to exposure to urine and stool. The comprehensive approach resulted in positive outcomes, including the successful surgical treatment of spinal dysraphism, successful colostomy reversal, and developmental progress. This case contributes insight into the surgical management of severe perianal ulcerated IH associated with LUMBAR syndrome, highlighting the importance of a tailored surgical approach with a multidisciplinary framework. |
