AI Article Synopsis
- A 38-year-old woman with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) showed cardiac MRI results, specifically regressed rhabdomyomas.
- The presence of myocardial fatty foci in such patients may indicate broader organ involvement, though this factor isn't included in TSC diagnostic guidelines.
- Careful analysis of abnormal first pass perfusion and late Gadolinium enhancement on MRI is crucial to prevent misdiagnosis in TSC patients.
Article Abstract
We report cardiac MRI findings in a 38-year-old female Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) patient with regressed rhabdomyomas. Presence of myocardial fatty foci are associated with multiorgan involvement, although they are not a part of the current TSC diagnostic criteria. Presence of abnormal first pass perfusion and late Gadolinium enhancement in TSC patients should be carefully interpreted to avoid misdiagnosis.
