The Spanish Pediatric Association (Asociación Española de Pediatría, AEP) has as one of its main objectives the dissemination of rigorous and up-to-date scientific information on the various areas of pediatrics. Annals of Pediatrics is an open access journal that serves as the Association's Scientific Expression Organ and constitutes the vehicle through which members communicate. Annals of Pediatrics publishes, in English and Spanish, original research papers on pediatrics, as well as review articles prepared by experts in each specialty, and guidelines or positioning documents prepared by the different Societies/Specialized Sections integrated into the Spanish Pediatric Association. The journal, a reference for Spanish-speaking pediatrics, is indexed in the most important international databases: Index Medicus/Medline IBECS, IME, SCOPUS, Science Citation Index Expanded, Journal Citations Report, Embase/Excerpta Medica, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ).

Se comunican tres nuevas obervaciones de síndrome de Klippel-Trenaunay (SKT) de distinta evolución y extensión, que reúnen criterios diagnósticos, evaluados por examen físico, técnicas de imagen, estudios radiológicos y de laboratorio. La malformación vascular e hipertrofia de tejidos blandos era evidente en los tres casos, en dos de ellos existían lesiones internas y agrandamiento óseo, y en uno anomalías digitales. Se revisan, además, los principales aspectos de esta importante angiodisplasia.

Palabras clave:

Síndrome de Klippel-Trenaunay (SKT)

Malformación vascular

We report three new cases of Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome (KTS), with differing evolution and involvement, in which the diagnostic criteria were confirmed by physical evaluation, imaging techniques, radiologic and laboratory studies. Vascular malformation and soft tissue hypertrophy were evident in all three patients: two showed internal lesions and bony hypertrophy and one patient showed digital deformities. We review the main features of this important angiodysplasia.

Key words:

Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome (KTT)
