[Medullary angiomas and the Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome]. / Angiomes médullaires et syndrome de Klippel-Trénaunay-Weber.

ABSTRACT

5 cases of an association of Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome and of spinal cord angiomas are reported amongst a series of 150 cases of malformation of the cord. The hypertrophic element, arterial dilatations and varices were found to be constant, in constant to cutaneous angiomatosis which was found in only 2 cases. There were intraspinal angiomas in all cases. The relationship between Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome and regional angiomatous phacomatoses are discussed.
