Tuberous Sclerosis Report of Two Cases and Review of Literatures in Korea / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Two cases of tuberous sclerosis are reported. Case 1 A 13 years-old girl had a triad of adenoma sebaceum, mental deficiency and epileptic seizures associated with ichthyosis vulgaris, but family history revealed no evidences of the disease except ichthyosis in her mother. Case 2 A 21 year-old woman had a adenoma sebaceum, shagreen patch, periungual fibroma and fihromatous plaque, showing intracranial calcificatins on roentgenographic examination, but has not demonstrated any neurological manifestations as yet. Family history also revealed adenoma sebaceum in her father and two younger sisters. We feel this case is a "forme fruste" of tuberous sclerosis.
