Abstract
The clinical and radiologic findings of tuberous sclerosis in 3 family members, which manifested as renal insufficiency due to extensive renal cystic disease, are described. The family was thought to have polycystic kidney until coexisting tiny angiomyolipomas were found among the cysts (by computed tomography in 2 patients and at autopsy in 1). The radiologic and pathologic factors that establish the diagnosis of renal cystic disease associated with the tuberous sclerosis complex are reviewed.
