Abstract:
The lesions of central nervous system in tuberous sclerosis often calcify, especially those present in the perivascular region, allowing the computed tomography to make early and definite diagnosis, even when patients intelligence was normal, seizures were absent, or clinical findings were not specific, We report three cases of tuberous sclerosis, which showed pathognomic subependymal paraventricular calcification in brain CT.
