Abstract

An extremely rare case of Sturge-Weber disease with the early onset of seizure and intracranial calcification at the neonatal period is reported. It is emphasized that computed tomography (CT) is the first choice as diagnostic procedure for this disease, revealing extensive cortical atrophy and calcification which were not detected by other radiological examinations.
