Aim: Sturge–Weber Syndrome, also known as encephalotrigeminal angiomatosis, is an uncommon, nonhereditary developmental anomaly. Methodology: A 48-year-old woman presented for routine dental treatment. She had a history of seizures and had a port wine stain on the right side of her face, which followed the distribution of the trigeminal nerve. Skull radiographs revealed “tram-track” calcifications. Conclusions: The early diagnosis of Sturge–Weber Syndrome requires a multidisciplinary approach. Oral health care professionals need adequate knowledge and understanding of the disease process to help diagnose and treat these patients.  How to cite this article: Jacob LE, Mathew AL, Omal PM, Abraham T, Thomas J, Varghese S.

Sturge-Weber Syndrome (SWS) is one of the encephalotrigeminal angiomatosis and one of the important segmental vascular neurocutaneous disorders .The occurrence is not very uncommon and the prevalence is 1:20000 to 1:50000.(1) SWS occurs due to the presence of residual embryonic vessels . The various signs and symptoms include capillary malformation in the face a port wine birthmark and similar malformation in the brain involving leptomeniges as well as blood vessels of the eye causing glaucoma. The patient presents with seizures , hemiparesis and stroke like symptoms, headaches and developmental delay.(2) The imaging nding in SWS children is the calcication in the parietal and occipital area of the brain. The EEG ndings in SWS are the attenuation and the excess of slow activities.We are presenting here a rare case of , a fourteen year old male child who presented to our emergency department with status epilepticus. The aim of presenting this case is to share the classical presentation and the challenges involved in the management
