Cranial computertomography in children with tuberous sclerosis. 1977

H D Kuhlendahl, and G Gross-Selbeck, and H Doose, and H Klinge, and H P Jensen

20 children with tuberous sclerosis were examined by computertomography (CCT). The test is useful to detect cerebral involvement with great certainty. The method is especially helpful in the early diagnosis of the disease. This offers the possibility of giving an early genetic advice. Characteristic CCT scan abnormalities in tuberous sclerosis are multiple densities in the walls and the roof of lateral ventricles. This specific finding can already be seen prior to the occurrence of calcifications in standard roentgenograms.

D014402 Tuberous Sclerosis Autosomal dominant neurocutaneous syndrome classically characterized by MENTAL RETARDATION; EPILEPSY; and skin lesions (e.g., adenoma sebaceum and hypomelanotic macules). There is, however, considerable heterogeneity in the neurologic manifestations. It is also associated with cortical tuber and HAMARTOMAS formation throughout the body, especially the heart, kidneys, and eyes. Mutations in two loci TSC1 and TSC2 that encode hamartin and tuberin, respectively, are associated with the disease.
