ABSTRACT
Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber Syndrome [KTWS] is a rare neurocutaneous syndrome. Hemimegalencephaly [HME] and seizure episodes have been reported previously in a few cases with KTWS. We report here a 3 day-old girl with partial motor seizures, extensive port-wine staining and mild structural deformities in the feet, and a hemimegalencephaly. Occurrence of partial motor seizures in addition to bilateral lower extremities extensive port-wine staining is a unique feature seen in our case
