Facial Port-Wine Stains and Sturge-Weber Syndrome

O. Enjolras MD1, M. C. Riche MD1, and J. J. Merland MD1

1 From the Department of Neuroradiology, Hôpital Lariboisière, and Department of Dermatology, Hôpital Tarnier, Paris

A retrospective study was made of 106 cases of facial port-wine stains. It was concluded that only patients with lesions located in the ophthalmic (or V1 trigeminal) cutaneous area are at risk for associated neuro-ocular symptoms. It is proposed that Sturge-Weber syndrome results from a dysmorphogenesis of cephalic neuroectoderm.

Key Words: port-wine stain • vascular malformation • Sturge-Weber syndrome • glaucoma • neural crest
