Tuberous sclerosis with Cardiac Tumor in fetus with Diabetic Mother

Introduction A heart tumor in children is rare and the most primary tumor of the heart is rhabdomyoma. We report a case of cardiac mass diagnosed at 32th weeks of pregnancy while the mother had gestational diabetes Mellitus. Serial echocardiography revealed regression of the tumor; then follow up of the patient confirmed tuberous sclerosis.

Splenic involvement in a stillborn fetus with tuberous sclerosis and multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas.

Multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas are frequently associated with tuberous sclerosis (TSC). However, splenic involvement in TSC is very rare. Histiocytoid cells in the spleen have been previously reported in only seven neonates and one fetus. We report an unusual case of multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas in a stillborn fetus with TSC who had clusters of histiocytoid cells in the spleen. These large cell...

Tuberous sclerosis presenting with fetal and neonatal cardiac tumours.

Cardiac tumours were identified on ultrasonography in fetal or early postnatal life in five infants. Tuberous sclerosis was subsequently diagnosed in all five. Only one infant required operation. Regression of the tumour occurred in three. No infant had hypomelanotic macules at birth, and they took up to two years to appear.
