✦ Synopsis

A case of prenatal Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome is presented, with a description of the sonographically observed disease progression in utero. The appearance of a complex thoracic multicystic mass in association with progressive unilateral lower limb enlargement was strongly suspicious of this disorder. Colour-flow Doppler studies of the cutaneous haemangiomata in utero were not of diagnostic assistance in this case. The prenatal detection of the large cutaneous haemangiomata was of critical importance in minimizing delivery trauma for the mother and fetus.

Most cases of KTW syndrome are sporadic. However, in a few, other family members have some clinical manifestations of the syndrome, and an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance has been suggested. In this paper we present a family with an affected child who has large skin hemangiomata, overgrowth o
