ABSTRACT

Tuberous sclerosis is a rare autosomal dominant neurocutaneous disorder characterized by benign congenital tumors of multiple organs. The diagnosis is made by a triad of seizures, mental retardation and adenoma sebaceum. Imaging plays an important role in diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis characterized by cortical or subependymal tubers and white matter abnormalities in the brain. Other systemic involvement include cardiac rhabdomyoma and renal angiomyolipoma.

Keywords: Neurocutaneous, sebaceum, rhabdomyoma.
