Sturge-Weber Syndrome
Sturge-Weber Syndrome is a rare neurological condition that is present at birth. It is characterized by a facial birthmark, known as a port-wine stain, typically located on one side of the face. This syndrome can also affect the brain, leading to potential complications such as seizures, developmental delays, and other neurological issues.
The condition occurs due to an abnormality in blood vessels, which can affect both the skin and the brain. While there is no cure for Sturge-Weber Syndrome, treatment focuses on managing symptoms, such as controlling seizures and providing support for developmental challenges. Early intervention can improve outcomes for affected individuals.
