Abstract

Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rarenon-hereditary condition characterized by a hamartomatous vascular proliferation. It is usually unilateral; bilateral involvement is seen only in 15% cases. We report a case of a 6 month old male child with Sturge-Weber syndrome with its inherent clinical features and typical imaging findings.
