Doctors had no explanation for the dark red "birthmark" that covered much of her daughter Mary Ellen’s face when she was born. "The only thing they said was that it was too extensive for any kind of removal," Mary recalls. Then at three months, Mary Ellen started having seizures. Doctors treated the seizures with phenobarbital, but, still, couldn’t identify the condition. The problems got worse. Mary Ellen began experiencing bleeding at the top of the brain. A shunt was implanted in her brain to drain the fluids but later had to be removed when an infection developed. For three years, Mary Haslob was fighting an unknown enemy. "It was a bad, bad three years," she says. "It was just one thing after another. I was a nervous wreck over not knowing what my daughter had. That was the worst part. You don’t know where the future is going and if every day is going to be like this." The Haslobs finally found a doctor who gave the diagnosis of Sturge-Weber syndrome and got her seizures under control.

overview legacy of excellence research spotlight - archives Pamela Donohue, Sc.D. (r) and Marilee Allen, M.D. Oxygen Saturation Effective Screen for Early Heart Disease Pulse oximetry, performed on infants at 24 hours of age, may be an effective screening test fro the early detection of congenital heart disease. The simple procedure, in which a probe is attached to an infant’s finger or toe, can detect reductions in oxygen saturation, thereby identifying a potential for hear disease, in its earliest, most treatable stages, report Johns Hopkins researchers, with colleagues at the University of Florida and Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC), in the December 2002 issue of Pediatric Cardiology. Low oxygen saturation is a good predictor of the presence of critical left heart obstructive disease (LHOD), including coarctation of the aorta. Many symptoms of LHOD are so mild a birth that they escape detection for several days; seemingly healthy infants can be sent home before the diagnosis is made. “An ideal screening test should detect the latent or early symptomatic period of a disease when early treatment can prevent progression,” say the authors. “Early detection of LHOD has been shown to decrease the mortality and result in better operative outcomes.”

Sturge-Weber's syndrome Right sided port-wine stain of the face and ipsilateral tissue hypertrophy. Left-sided port-wine stain with conjunctival involvement. The patient also has left glaucoma. The face of this patient has a port-wine in the distribution of the first and second divison of the trigeminal nerve. The ipsilateral eye may be red (due to the presence of haemangioma of the conjunctiva; the iris may be involved causing heterochromic iridis). The affected side of the face may also show hypertrophy. Further examination: examine the anterior segment for haemangioma and the presence of trabeculectomy posterior segment for glaucomatous disc and choroidal haemangioma (this is diffuse and may cause exudative retinal detachment). Question: 1. What is the inheritance of Sturge-Weber's syndrome? Answer Unlike other phakomatosis which has a hereditary tendency, Sturge-Weber's syndrome is a sporadic condition. 2. What is responsible for the port-wine stain and can it be removed? Answer There are caused by abnormal ectatic vessels in the dermis. Removal can be achieved with photothermolysis using dye laser.

STURGE WEBER Foundation (UK) Registered Charity Number 1016688 The Syndrome Sturge Weber syndrome is a rare neurological disorder of unknown incidence and origin. It is NOT thought to be hereditary. Sturge Weber is usually indicated by a birthmark(port wine stain) somewhere on the face, usually involving the eye and forehead, also similar blood vessels on the brain, called an angioma. Those who suffer from SW often suffer from epilepsy, hemiplegia (a weakness or stiffness affecting one side of the body, similar in appearance to that of a stroke), glaucoma and learning difficulties. Symptoms usually occur in the child`s first year of life. GO TO OTHER PAGES HOME About Us Glaucoma Epilepsy ... Family Weekend 2002 The Charity The Sturge Weber Foundation (UK) was launched in 1990 by Contact a Family and is an independent voluntary support group for families and adults who suffer from this syndrome. Membership Membership is entirely free to professionals, sufferers and their families. Aims To provide support and information on differents aspects of the syndrome and to raise both public and professional awareness of the condition. To promote medical research into the causes and treatment of this syndrome.

PORT WINE STAINS AND STURGE WEBER SYNDROME A port wine stain on the face of a new born child is symptomatic of Sturge - weber syndrome, a condition involving the vascular and central nervous system. Three out of one thousand children are born with a port wine stain but only 8 % of these will have Sturge - Weber syndrome. WHAT IS A PORT WINE STAIN A port wine stain is a flat, pink, red, or purplish lesion (area of tissue with impaired function as a result of physical damage by disease or wounding) in this instance caused by blood vessel abnormality, capillary malformation of the skin. The stains associated with Sturge - Weber syndrome are found mainly on the face and follow the trigeminal nerve, the fifth and largest cranial nerve, which splits into three divisions :- OPTHALMIC area - upper eyelid and forehead. MAXILLARY area - cheek and upper eyelid. MANDIBULARY area - lower cheek, lower lip and chin. It is thought that when the OPTHALMIC area is involved the infant is at a greater risk of having Sturge - Weber syndrome. SUPPORT The psychological problems associated with such a birth mark are well documented and can include poor self image, lack of confidence and problems with social interaction.
