Massive intracerebral hematoma in a child with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome.
The authors describe a child who suffered from massive intracerebral bleeding due to rupture of a cerebral arteriovenous malformation associated with Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS). Neurovascular lesions have been regarded as uncommon in KTS; however, our case may indicate the need for neurovascular scrutiny in patients with this syndrome.
