Abstrakt:	Hennekam syndrome (HS) is a rare genetic disorder involving malformations of the lymphatic system. Structural abnormalities and malformations within the central nervous system (CNS) have also been reported along with intellectual disability and developmental delay. We report a patient with HS who presented with seizures and was found to have an intra‐axial lesion, which was resected via craniotomy. While this case represents, to our knowledge, the first instance in the literature that a HS patient has been treated for a CNS abnormality via neurosurgical intervention, we provide a literature review of CNS lesions in patients with HS.
