| Popis: | Sturge Weber syndrome (SWS) also called encephalo-trigeminal-angiomatosis, is an uncommon entity in India. The characteristic feature of SWS is the presence of "port-wine stain" varying from light pink to deep purple, covering trigeminal nerve distribution. Patients have associated ocular involvement, mental retardation, and seizures due to the involvement of the vasculature of eye and the CNS. Neuro-ophthalmological monitoring of patients with SWS may be useful for early detection of ocular involvement before the appearance of serious visual complications. We have reported an unusual case of SWS with port wine stain on half of the body, retinal detachment with raised IOP and cerebellar calcifications with no neurological symptomatic manifestations. |
