Surgical Management of Odontogenic Infection in Sturge-Weber Syndrome: Report of a Case.

ABSTRACT Surgical management of odontogenic infections in Sturge-Weber Syndrome is challenging, due to the risk of massive bleeding and difficulty to achieve hemostasis. The authors describe the use of preoperative vascular embolization for oral surgery in a 29-year-old patient. The authors highlight the importance of hemostatic agents and primary wound closure and the role of vascular embolization as a potential tool for preventing hemorrhage in these cases.
