Epilepsy associated tuberous sclerosis; a case report from Bangladesh.

ABSTRACT: Tuberous sclerosis or Bourneville's disease is a rare autosomal dominant disease affecting many organs like the brain, heart, lungs, eyes, kidneys and skin. It is characterized by neurological manifestation like epilepsy, cutaneous changes and the formation of benign lesions in multiple organs. The symptoms are apparent only in late childhood, which limits the early diagnosis in infancy. Here, we report a case of a 15 year old female child with tuberous sclerosis.
