syndrome is a rare congenital syndrome involving enlarged veins and arteries, limb hypertrophy and capillary malformations. In 1900, French physicians, Klippel and Trenaunay, first described what became known as Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome after two patients presented with a triad of symptoms — port-wine stain, varicose veins, and bony and soft tissue hypertrophy involving an extremity (Klippel ...

We report phakomatosis pigmentovascularis (PPV) detected in a 40yearold male characterized by the presence of a port-wine stain in the background of aberrant Mongolian spots covering the back, nevus of Ota, ocular melanosis, epidermal nevus and a scaly patch with the diagnosis of discoid lupus erytematosus. These associations have not been reported yet.

We report an extremely rare case of a congenital spinal cord hamartoma in a male neonate who presented with upper extremity weakness and a port wine stain on the right upper extremity and chest. MR imaging findings are described, and the importance of localizing the lesion in the spinal canal with respect to the dura and its impact on neurosurgical management is stressed.

A unique Monte Carlo program capable of accommodating an arbitrarily complex geometry was used to determine the energy deposition in a true port wine stain anatomy. Serial histologic sections taken from a biopsy of a dark red, laser therapy resistant stain were digitized and used to create the program input for simulation at wavelengths of 532 and 585 nm. At both wavelengths, the greatest energ...

Klippel Trenaunay syndrome is a rare mixed vascular malformation characterized by a triad of port wine stain, varicose veins, and bony, soft tissue hypertrophy involving an extremity [1]. A rare case involving face and all the limbs is being reported. This is a case of interest also because of having clinical overlap with Proteus syndrome.

Parkes-Weber syndrome (PWS) is an arteriovenous vascular malformation. It occurs at birth and affects mainly the lower limbs (77%). Detection of arteriovenous fistula associated with the Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome (KTS) triad confirms the diagnosis of this syndrome. (1, 2) The KTS is characterized by the typical triad of cutaneous vascular port wine stains, soft tissue and/or bone hypertrophy a...

Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare nonhereditary developmental condition with neurological and skin disorder, characterized by presence of port wine stain on the face along with ocular disorders, oral manifestations and leptomeningeal angiomas. Here we present an unusual case of Sturge-Weber syndrome with osseous hypertrophy of maxilla.

Pyogenic granuloma is a type of inflammatory hyperplasia often seen in the oral cavity and occurs in response to stimuli such as local irritants and hormonal factors. Pyogenic granulomas associated with pregnancy are referred to as pregnancy tumors. This report describes the presentation and surgical management of a large pregnancy tumor occurring in a patient with an overlying isolated facial ...

Pereira C, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-221011 Description A male newborn was evaluated due to a port-wine stain. Mother, 40 years old, father and brother were healthy. Gestation was uneventful. Amniocentesis revealed a normal male karyotype. A caesarean delivery was performed at 38 weeks. First physical examination showed a port-wine stain affecting the abdomen, back and left...
