Abstract
A case of tuberous sclerosis presenting with autistic behaviour is described. Although tuberous sclerosis is a rare cause of the autistic syndrome, it should be more strongly suspected when autistic behaviour is associated with seizures in a young child.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
