Abstract:
The association of varicose vein, soft tissue and bony hypertrophy and cutaneous hemangi-oma of the port-wine variety confined to one extremity was first reported in 1900 by Klippel and Trenaunay, and then Weber. A case of Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber Syndrome with macrodactylia in a 2 months old male infant(dizygotic) is presented who was asmitted to B.N.U.H. with chief complaints of nevus fla-mmeus, swelling of the left lower extremity.
