Abstract
The following chapters consider Klippel-Tranaunay syndrome (OMIM # 149000), Parkes Weber syndrome and Sturge-Weber syndrome (OMIM # 185300) together because all three have various types of vascular malformations and overgrowth involving the limbs in Klippel-Tranaunay and Parkes Weber syndromes and the head (but also other body regions) in Sturge-Weber syndrome (Cohen 2006, Cohen et al. 2002). Besides Sturge-Weber syndrome the other two conditions (or three if one includes Kasabach-Merrit syndrome) are not truly neurocutaneous disorders because their nervous system involvement is of limited extent if any and extremely infrequent. In these chapters however we have treated them all in consideration of their relevance for differential diagnosis.
