Tuberous sclerosis, also tuberous sclerosis complex (abbreviated TSC), is an autosomal dominant syndrome associated with an increased risk of hamartomas and some risk increase for malignant tumours.

Historically described as:[1]

  1. Epilepsy.
  2. Mental retardation.
  3. Adenoma sebaceum (angiofibromas).

Diagnostic consensus criteria published (2012, OpenAcess).

Also called Bourneville-Pringle disease.

General

  • Autosomal dominant with variable penetrance.[2]
  • Majority (60-70%) are de novo mutations.[2]
  • May be treated with a mTOR inhibitor, e.g. everolimus.[3]

Associations

Pathologic:


Note:

  • The same genes (TSC1, TSC2) are implicated in PEComas.
  • Renal lesions are seen in ~60% of patients.[4]

  • Scheme illustrates types of neuropathologic changes in tuberous sclerosis complex. 1- isolated balloon cells in white matter, TSC-/-; 2- heterotopic cluster with dysplastic neurons TSC-/+; 3- subependymal nodules and 4- subependymal giant cell astrocytoma in ependyma of third ventricle (note that this is not usual localisation for both lesions, which is rather ependyma of lateral ventricles) 5- cortical tuber; 6 - linear migration streak. This scheme is based on DiMario, F Brain abnormalities in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex J Child Neurol, 9, 650-657. 2004.[9]


Mnemonic SALSA HEART:[10]

Genes

  • TSC1.[13]
  • TSC2.[14]
    • Some evidence to suggest it is more often implicated in malignant tumours (than TSC1).[15]
    • TSC2 mutations have a higher prevalence (than TSC1 mutations) and are considered more aggressive.[4]

Notes:

  • The proteins (hamartin and tuberin) are expressed in a wide variety of tissues.[16]

Incidence

~1 in 10,000 population.[1][15]
