Sturge Weber Syndrome: A Case Report.

ABSTRACT

Sturge-Weber syndrome is a neurocutaneous syndrome characterized by port wine stain, congenital glaucoma, and underlying anomalous leptomeningeal venous plexus and the lack of normal cortical venous drainage. It is a congenital but not an inherited disease and it occurs sporadically and is very rare, incidence being approximately 1 on 50000. It occurs with rare exception but occasionally the other members of the family may have hemangiomata of a lesser degree.
