Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 8

Abstract

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal dominant neurocutaneous genodermatosis. Sporadic cases have been reported. We report two cases of TSC in a family with unilateral renal angiomyolipoma. A 25 year male farmer and his offspring, 6 year old girl, born of non consanguineous marriage, presented with facial angiofibroma, hypomelanotic macules and unilateral renal angiomyolipoma. Computerised tomography revealed subependymal calcification on lateral ventricles in both the patients.
