Abstract

Tuberous Sclerosis Complex is a rare genetic disorder inherited in autosomal dominant fashion. It is a multisystem disorder involving brain, skin, kidneys, heart, eyes and lungs which becomes apparent only in late childhood, limiting the usefulness of early diagnosis in infancy. Here, we report a case of an 11 year male child with tuberous sclerosis.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/jkmc.v2i4.11798Journal of Kathmandu Medical CollegeVol. 2, No. 4, Issue 6, Oct.-Dec., 2013Page : 208-210
