ABSTRACT
Tuberous sclerosis(TS), a type of neurocutaneous syndrome, is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Approximately 60% of children with TS have rhabdomyomas of the heart, and 40% of fetuses in whom rhabdomyomas are detected by a prenatal ultrasonography eventually end up with TS. Therefore, when multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas are detected by a fetal ultrasonography, TS should be suspected and further examination should be considered after birth. Infantile spasms is a common type of seizure among young children with TS. We describe a patient with TS who showed cardiac tumors on a fetal ultrasound. Also, hypomelanotic macules, retinal tumors, brain cortical tubers, nodules in subependymal regions, and infantile spasms was detected after birth.
