Deep venous remodeling in unilateral Sturge-Weber syndrome: Robust hemispheric differences and clinical correlates

Enlarged deep medullary veins (EDMVs) in patients with Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) occur during the early disease course and may provide compensatory venous drainage for brain regions affected by the leptomeningeal venous malformation (LVM). We evaluated the prevalence, extent, hemispheric differences, and clinical correlates of EDMVs in SWS.
