    General Discussion
    Sturge-Weber Syndrome is composed of three major symptoms. Excessive blood vessel growths (leptomeningeal angiomas) are accompanied by accumulations of calcium inside the brain, and seizures. Facial birth marks (nevus flammeus) appear usually on one side of the face. Angiomas similar to those found in the brain can develop inside the eye, often with secondary glaucoma.
    Symptoms
    Nevus Flammeus is a discoloration on the face which is the red color of port wine. In Sturge-Weber Syndrome this "port wine stain" is noted at birth and generally occurs on the same side of the head as the excessive blood vessel growths (leptomeningeal angiomatoses) in the brain which are accompanied by accumulations of calcium (intracranial calcifications). The port wine stain primarily occurs along the distribution of the trigeminal nerve in the face, although in some cases it does not appear at all. Approximately thirty seven percent of patients have portwine stains on both sides of the face. Involvement of the extremities or trunk, in addition to the face, occurs in up to thirty-six percent of patients. Although the discoloration usually affects only one side of the face, a slight extension over the midface occurs in approximately fifty percent of cases. The port wine stain tends to deepen in color with age, and nodular elevations may also develop.

    Hemispherectomy for Pediatric Catastrophic Epilepsy Hemispherectomy implies the surgical removal of one of the two cerebral hemispheres of the brain. The operation has a long neurosurgical history, being first performed in 1928 for the treatment of a malignant glioma. Applied to epilepsy in the 1950s, it remained popular until a 1966 report of superficial cerebral hemosiderosis occurring after anatomic hemispherectomy appeared in the literature. Soon, variations in the technique were developed to address these delayed hemorrhagic complications. Functional hemispherectomy is the most common type of hemispherectomy performed today, and many centers offer anatomic, functional, or some other variation of the hemispherectomy procedure.
