Abstract

Klippel–Trénaunay–Weber syndrome is a syndrome combination of capillary malformations, soft-tissue or bone hypertrophy, and varicose veins or venous malformations. Most cases are considered sporadic. However, some of the possible differential diagnoses may have familial predispositions. We report one such case having right leg A-V malformation presented with complain of varicosity and non healing ulcer. [Arun G NJIRM 2016; 7(6):119-120]
