We present the clinical characteristics of a patient who was concluded as a carrier of the Klippel-Trenaunay Weber syndrome, who entered the Provincial Hospital of Matanzas José Ramón López Tabranes, with an intraparenchimatous hematoma. It is included among the neurocutaneous syndromes with vascular condition. It is a rare condition (1/27 500 newborns) and it is not well-known. It has three main distinguishing characteristics: angioma or nevus flammeus, asymmetric hypertrophy of soft tissues and varices. Those alterations are observed in our patient, associated to other occasional anomalies.Downloads
