Cyst-like tubers are associated with TSC2 and epilepsy in tuberous sclerosis complex.

Neurology - 31 Mar 2009

Chu-Shore Catherine J, Major Philippe, Montenegro Maria, Thiele Elizabeth

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic condition characterized by the presence of hamartomatous lesions in multiple organs, including tubers in the brain. The majority of patients with TSC have epilepsy. Some cortical tubers are epileptic foci, while others appear to be physiologically quiescent. It is unknown whether variations in tuber morphology may account for this difference. The...
