Tuberous sclerosis is an autosomal dominant multisystemic genetic condition that can affect many organs: brain, skin, eye, heart, lungs and the kidney. It affects one in 7 to 8,000 people. Its main complications involve the nervous system (convulsions, intracranial hypertension), the kidneys (rupture of cysts and angiomyolipomas) and the lungs of adult females (rupture of bullae with lymphangioleiomyomatosis).
