MULTI DISCIPLINARY APPROACH IN STURGE-WEBER SYNDROME: A CASE REPORT

Abstract


INTRODUCTION : Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS) is a rare congenital neurocutaneous disorder characterized by facial capillary malformations and associated neurological complications. This case report details a 24-year-old female with Sturge- Weber syndrome (SWS) who sought cosmetic surgery to address aesthetic concerns stemming from facial disfigurement, including facial palsy and a port-wine stain. Comprehensive evaluation revealed a rash consistent with SWS, alongside a history of seizures. The report emphasizes the need for a multidisciplinary approach to manage both cosmetic and medical challenges while highlighting the importance of understanding the implications of dental procedures in such patients.
