Vascular disorders are considered a common finding among infants and in general, hemangioma is the most common. Diffuse neonatal hemangiomatosis is a rare and frequently fatal variant of them. We describe a case of a 2-months-old infant with multiple cutaneous hemangiomatosis and ocular involvement. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case. We focus on the different treatment modalities and current diagnostic approaches.

Purpose: The Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS) is a phacomatosis which include facial nevus flammeus, glaucoma, diffuse choroidal hemangioma, and leptomeningeal hemangiomatosis. External beam radiotherapy (EBRT) using photons was used to treat retinal detachment. We investigate the anatomical and functional results in a long-term basis.
