STURGE-WEBER SYNDROME

Alternate names

STURGE-WEBER SYNDROME Is also known as sws, sturge-weber-dimitri syndrome, sturge-weber-krabbe angiomatosis, encephalofacial angiomatosis, sturge-weber-krabbe syndrome, encephalotrigeminal angiomatosis

Description

Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital neurocutaneous disorder characterized by facial capillary malformations and/or cerebral and ocular ipsilateral vascular malformations that result in variable degrees of ocular and neurological anomalies.

Most common symptoms of STURGE-WEBER SYNDROME

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Strabismus
  • Hyperreflexia
  • Macrocephaly

STURGE-WEBER SYNDROME; SWS

Description

Sturge-Weber syndrome is characterized by an intracranial vascular anomaly, leptomeningeal angiomatosis, most often involving the occipital and posterior parietal lobes. The most common symptoms and signs are facial cutaneous vascular malformations (port-wine stains), seizures, and glaucoma. Stasis results in ischemia underlying the leptomeningeal angiomatosis, leading to calcification and laminar cortical necrosis. The clinical course is highly variable and some children experience intractable seizures, mental retardation, and recurrent stroke-like episodes (review by Thomas-Sohl et al., 2004).

Most common symptoms of STURGE-WEBER SYNDROME; SWS

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Microcephaly
  • Cognitive impairment

FAMILIAL MULTIPLE NEVI FLAMMEI

Alternate names

FAMILIAL MULTIPLE NEVI FLAMMEI Is also known as familial multiple port-wine stains

Description

Familial multiple nevi flammei is a rare, genetic capillary malformation disorder characterized by dark red to purple birthmarks which manifest as flat, sharply circumscribed cutaneous lesions, typically situated in the head and neck region, in various members of a single family. The lesions grow proportionally with the individual, change in color and often thicken with age.

Most common symptoms of FAMILIAL MULTIPLE NEVI FLAMMEI

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Scoliosis
  • Edema
  • Arrhythmia

CAPILLARY MALFORMATIONS, CONGENITAL; CMC

Alternate names

CAPILLARY MALFORMATIONS, CONGENITAL; CMC Is also known as port-wine stain, nevi flammei, familial multiple, capillary malformations, cmal

Description

Capillary malformations are a form of vascular malformation that are present from birth, tend to grow with the individual, do not regress spontaneously, and show normal rates of endothelial cell turnover. Capillary malformations are distinct from capillary hemangiomas (OMIM ), which are highly proliferative lesions that appear shortly after birth and show rapid growth, slow involution, and endothelial hypercellularity (Spring and Bentz, 2005; Legiehn and Heran, 2006).

Most common symptoms of CAPILLARY MALFORMATIONS, CONGENITAL; CMC

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Scoliosis
  • Edema
  • Dilatation

UVEAL MELANOMA

Alternate names

UVEAL MELANOMA Is also known as choroidal melanoma, iris melanoma

Description

Uveal melanoma is a rare tumor of the eye, arising from the choroid in 90% of cases and from the iris and ciliary body in the other 10% of cases, which clinically presents with visual symptoms (including blurred vision, photopsia, floaters, and visual field reduction), a visible mass and pain. Fatal metastatic disease is seen in about half of all patients, with the liver being the most frequent site of metastasis.

Most common symptoms of UVEAL MELANOMA

  • Neoplasm
  • Visual loss
  • Carcinoma
  • Retinal detachment
  • Nevus
