Tuberous sclerosis is a rare disease characterized by epilepsy, mental retardation and adenoma sebaceum. We describe the case of a 29-year-old woman with a clinical history of tuberous sclerosis who also had severe hypoxaemia, multifocal hamartoma-like lesions of various extrapulmonary organs, massive hypersplenism and coagulation defects. This case emphasizes the value of high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in patients with pulmonary tuberous sclerosis.

Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis is a rare disease characterized by epilepsy, mental retardation and adenoma sebaceum. We describe the case of a 29-year-old woman with a clinical history of tuberous sclerosis who also had severe hypoxaemia, multifocal hamartoma-like lesions of various extrapulmonary organs, massive hypersplenism and coagulation defects. This case emphasizes the value of high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in patients with pulmonary tuberous sclerosis.File in questo prodotto:
