Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) is characterized by facial port-wine stains, leptomeningeal hemangiomas, and prominent ocular manifestations such as glaucoma and diffuse choroidal hemangiomas (DCHs). Imaging modalities are critical for diagnosing and longitudinally monitoring DCHs in SWS. Fundus photography is fundamental in assessing both eyes simultaneously, fluorescein angiography and indocyanine green angiography effectively map the retinal and choroidal circulation, and ultrasonography offers essential structural insights into the choroid and retina.

Choroidal hemangioma (CH) is a benign vascular tumor dependent on the choroid. Two types of lesions are distinguished: circumscribed (CCH), the most frequent variant, and diffuse (DCH), normally associated with Sturge-Weber syndrome. HCC appears as an orange mass that can present asymptomatically, however, when it produces symptoms, the most frequent is decreased visual acuity due to neurosensory retinal detachment.

Sturge-Weber syndrome is a developmental condition characterized by hamartomatous vascular proliferation involving the tissues of the brain and face. Hemangiomatous proliferations and arterial venous malformations are common intraoral alterations that may be fatal due to incontrollable bleeding when performing surgical procedures in the face. The goal of this case report is to present the management of a 21-year-old woman with Sturge-Weber syndrome in whom it was necessary to perform embolization guided by computed tomography angiography before multiple tooth extractions.
