- Facial PWS typically involves V1 distribution (can be more extensive or bilateral), congenital or acquired ocular abnormalities (glaucoma), neurologic abnormalities (seizures, motor dysfunction, mental retardation), intracranial “tram-track” calcification
- 10–15% patients with PWS of V1 distribution have underlying SWS
