Özet
Sturge-Weber syndrome is a rare neurocutaneous disorder. Coexistence of facial nevus with epilepsy often suggests the diagnosis of Sturge-Weber syndrome. However, the diagnosis becomes more difficult when there is no facial nevus. Radiologic examinations are often used for diagnosis and management. Especially in cases without skin findings, the radiological examinations with typical findings become more important. In this paper, we report case of a 12-year-old girl who was followed with the diagnosis of epilepsy since the age of two years, had complaints of weakness of the left arm and left leg without skin findings, and was diagnosed with Sturge-Weber syndrome after radiological examinations.
