    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Vascular Malformations
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Encephalotrigeminal angiomatosis (Sturge-Weber syndrome) is a rare congenital disorder.
    • It is characterized by a facial port-wine stain, leptomeningeal angioma, and often ocular and skeletal abnormalities.

    Observation:

    • A typical case history of encephalotrigeminal angiomatosis is presented.
    • The case highlights the common clinical features and diagnostic considerations.

    Findings:

    • The case demonstrates the characteristic triad of symptoms associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome.
    • Diagnostic imaging and clinical evaluation confirmed the diagnosis.

    Implications:

    • Understanding typical presentations is crucial for early diagnosis and management of Sturge-Weber syndrome.
    • This case contributes to the literature on encephalotrigeminal angiomatosis, aiding clinicians in recognizing and treating affected individuals.
