M Steiner, and A R Gould, and S M Graves, and T W Kuerschner

Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome exhibits vascular anomalies including hemangiomas and varicose veins that commonly appear in the facial area. Characteristic findings involving the oral cavity include an enlarged maxilla, displacement of teeth, and malocclusions. Two cases are presented, with generalized and oral findings ranging from a mild to a very severe form of the syndrome.
