Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder that causes tumors to form in many different organs. The organs mainly affected are the brain, eyes, heart, kidney, skin and lungs. The term TSC is used in scientific literature to distinguish Tuberous Sclerosis Complex from Tourette’s Syndrome.
Diagnosis of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is currently made after a series of tests have been carried out: a brain MRI or CT Scan, renal ultrasound, echocardiogram of the heart, EKG, eye exam and a Wood’s Lamp evaluation of the skin.
