Abstract
Abstract: Tuberous sclerosis also called tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), is a rare genetic disease that causes benign tumors to grow in body, resulting in a variety of hamartomatous lesions that may affect virtually every system of the body. Tuberous sclerosis is often detected during infancy or childhood. Some people with tuberous sclerosis have such mild symptoms that it couldn’t diagnosed until adulthood, while others experience serious disabilities. The signs and symptoms of tuberous sclerosis widely vary, depending on where the tumors develop and how severely a person is affected. The best-known cutaneous manifestation of TSC is adenoma sebaceum, which often does not appear until late childhood or early adolescence.
