Early presentation of tuberous sclerosis as bilateral renal cysts.

A Campos1, E T Figueroa, S Gunasekaran, E H Garin.   

Abstract

We report on an infant in whom bilateral renal cysts were the only initial manifestation of tuberous sclerosis. We review the reported cases of infants with this association and emphasize that tuberous sclerosis can present in infancy as bilateral renal cystic disease. The role of the kidney biopsy in providing the correct diagnosis is discussed.
