Abstract

Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome (KTS) is a rare condition characterized by the triad of capillary malformations (port-wine stains), venous malformations, and soft tissue and/or bony hypertrophy. Many patients with KTS have pain of the affected area of the body. We report a unique KTS patient with multiple intraosseous calvarial venous malformations producing severe chronic headaches.
