Core Tip |
Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome (KTS) is a complicated, mixed, low-flow vascular malformation syndrome. Vessels that show abnormalities include skin capillaries, veins, and lymphatic vessels. Vascular malformation can lead to soft tissue and/or bony hypertrophy and, hence, KTS is also known as venous malformation and bone hypertrophy syndrome. However, Vascular malformations of KTS can also involve several parts and systems such as digestive and urogenital systems. KTS is a rare congenital disease and the clinical manifestations of it are extensive and diverse. This patient that we reported was initially misdiagnosed to have filariasis and hemorrhoid bleeding. Therefore, the atypical manifestations and rare complications necessitate the clinician’s attention and are not to be ignored. |
