Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis complex is a genetic disease that results in abnormal cellular proliferation and hamartoma growths in multiple organ systems. However, macrodactyly and subcutaneous fibrous harmatomas are very uncommon associations with this disease. We see these rare manifestations in our case report of a 16-year-old female with tuberous sclerosis complex and discuss the imaging findings and pathogenetics of these manifestations. Through this, our report aims to expand the known clinical spectrum of features seen in tuberous sclerosis and aid in its diagnosis.Entities:
