Abstract

AbstractTuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disease with neurocutaneous manifestations, often presenting initially to the dermatology clinic. We report a cohort of neonates who presented with a novel finding of white epidermal nevus and were eventually diagnosed with TSC. White epidermal nevus may be yet another dermatological finding that may aid in the early diagnosis of TSC.
