in the hope that this information will be useful in the care of

patients and serve as a stimulus to encourage research on

some of the remaining questions about the syndrome. 

The second edition is edited by two fo the world's key opinion

leaders in the field of Sturge-Weber syndrome clinical and

scientific research.
