Tuberous sclerosis: case report and investigation of family members.

Abstract

Familial tuberous sclerosis probably occurs more often than is indicated by the literature: many family members show signs of being carriers of the gene for the disease when carefully examined. This article reports on a family with documented tuberous sclerosis in three generations and discusses the examination and investigation of at-risk family members, including the newborn, for signs of the disease. The potential teratogenic effects of anticonvulsants, used to control seizures in tuberous sclerosis, are also discussed.
