Klippel Trenaunay Syndrome
Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome is a rare congenital malformation involving blood
and lymph vessels and abnormal growth of soft and bone tissue. Typical
symptoms include port-wine stain, venous malformation or varicose veins,
overgrowth of bones and soft tissue with an enlarged limb (hemi-gigantism). This
may be associated with abnormalities in the lymphatic system as well.
