Article Synopsis
- - Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disorder causing nonmalignant growths in various organs, with delayed diagnosis often resulting from a lack of physician familiarity.
- - Two patients, a 27-year-old man with kidney issues and a 28-year-old woman with seizures, were diagnosed with TSC through established diagnostic criteria and exhibited various skin lesions.
- - Both patients were advised to receive ongoing care: the male was referred to a chronic illness clinic, while the female was scheduled for dermatological treatment for her facial lesions.
