Parkes-Weber syndrome associated with a congenital short femur of the affected limb.
The association of capillary malformation, high-flow arteriovenous fistulas, and limb hypertrophy corresponds to Parkes-Weber syndrome. Most of cases are sporadic, although a first familial case has been recently reported. We report the first observation of a Parkes-Weber vascular anomaly with an underlying congenital short femur.
