Embodiment 1

[0032] A 5-year-old girl presented with a 4-year history of painful purpuric plaques on the right arm. Four years earlier, the patient's parents had discovered a red papule on the outer right upper arm after a mosquito bite. On physical examination, dark red papules on the right upper arm merged into annular plaques ( figure 1 A-C). Skin biopsy performed at initial evaluation revealed hyperplastic masses of vascular endothelial cells in a typical "cannonball" distribution of scattered oval dermal lobules in the middle dermis, surrounded by fissures ( figure 1 D). Immunohistochemistry showed positive staining of endothelial cells in lobules for CD31 and VEGF ( figure 1 E, F), but negative for GLUT-1. No Kasabach-Merritt phenomenon was found in the platelet examination of the child. The final diagnosis was TA.

[0033] Based on the results of adenosine triphosphate-tumor chemosensitivity assay, 0.5% timolol maleate wet compress (using 0.5% (g / mL) timolol maleate (0.5% T...

Embodiment 2

[0036] A 2-year-old boy presented with four painful dark red nodules on his neck from birth. Afterwards, the nodules continued to proliferate and coalesce into violet-colored plaques with annular margins ( figure 2 A). Biopsy showed typical TA.

[0037] Use four layers of gauze moistened with 0.5% (g / mL) timolol maleate (0.5% timolol maleate eye drops, purchased from Wuhan Wujing Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) to moisten the lesion, Twice a day for external use for 6 months. The skin lesions on the neck were significantly improved, the skin lesions became flat, and the color became darker ( figure 2B-C). The treatment was well tolerated with no significant side effects. The lesion disappeared completely, and there was no recurrence after 12 months of follow-up after drug withdrawal.

Embodiment 3

[0039] In order to further investigate the effectiveness of timolol in the treatment of TA. The inventors of the present application collected 11 children with plexiform hemangioma (Tufted Angioma, TA) who visited the Department of Dermatology, Children's Hospital from October 2014 to October 2018. All cases were TA that occurred in the skin and were confirmed clinically and pathologically. All children were treated with topical timolol maleate and achieved good results. The specific experimental process and results are as follows:

[0040] 1. Materials and methods

[0041] 1. General information: From October 2014 to October 2018, 11 children with plexiform hemangioma who visited the Department of Dermatology were selected as the research objects, including 9 males and 2 females, aged 6 months to 10 years, and the lesions were located in Head, face and neck in 2 cases, limbs in 5 cases, and trunk in 4 cases. All patients had pain in 5 cases.
