A rare case of a 5-year-old girl with Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome and a bleeding focal vulvar hemangioma in Uganda.

Key Clinical Message: Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome can present with atypical manifestations such as a bleeding vulvar hemangioma. This case report, the first documented in Uganda, highlights the need for awareness of such presentations and underscores the importance of continuous follow-up in female patients to manage potential complications throughout adolescence and pregnancy. Abstract: Klippel-Trénaunay syndrome (KTS) is a rare congenital disorder marked by bone and soft tissue hypertrophy, port-wine stains, and varicosities. Cases involving genital hemangiomas are rare. This report highlights a 5-year-old girl in Uganda with typical KTS features, including hypertrophy and port-wine stains, along with a bleeding vulvar hemangioma, emphasizing its uncommon presentation and potential complications. Treatment involved compression bandaging and timolol 0.2% solution. This case underscores the importance of awareness of atypical manifestations of hemangiomas with KTS and continuous follow-up for female patients, especially through adolescence and pregnancy, due to potential complications such as prepubertal per vaginal bleeding, menorrhagia, and post-partum bleeding.
