Core Tip |
Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome (KTWS) is a very rare syndrome that involves three conditions: Cutaneous hemangiomas, varicosities, and soft-tissue hypertrophy of the affected limb. There are few cases of ischemic infarction with KTWS. Here, we describe a 43-year-old man who was diagnosed with KTWS with ischemic stroke. His chief complaints were worsening weakness and spasticity in the right leg. These symptoms had been present for 1 year, but the patient did not receive comprehensive rehabilitation until he underwent a 3-wk integrated inpatient rehabilitation program at our center. After the program, his muscle strength, walking ability, and exercise endurance improved. Although relatively rare, clinicians should consider the possibility of a thromboembolic event in KTWS patients. Integrated rehabilitation can help such patients to recover function. |
