Congenital vascular malformation associated with multiple cranial, vertebral and upper limb skeletal abnormalities

Abstract: The association between congenital vascular malformations and altered bone growth, the so-called vascular bone syndrome, is well documented. Various eponymous syndromes each with their individual traits, such as Klippel-Trenaunay, Parkes-Weber and Servelle-Martorell syndrome have been described, along with variations. We report on a previously undescribed case of congenital vascular malformation associated with multiple skeletal abnormalities affecting the skull, vertebrae and right upper limb, and discuss the… Show more

“…Servelle in the 1940s and 1950s described 80 cases of Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome, of which fibrous bands or aberrant arteries were found to compress deep venous channels resulting in varicosity in 79 of the patients; however, in one deviant case, no obstructing lesion was present and instead agenesis was present [3]. His research in combination with that of Martorell was later felt to potentiate a third clinical entity characterized by limb hypertrophy, varicose veins, and capillary malformations but osseous hypotrophy and limb foreshortening [4,5].…”
