Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder characterized by the formation of benign tumors in various organs of the body, including the brain, skin, kidneys, heart, lungs, and eyes. These tumors, known as hamartomas, can lead to a wide range of symptoms and complications, such as seizures, developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, skin abnormalities, and kidney problems. TSC affects individuals differently, with some experiencing mild symptoms while others face more severe manifestations. Its diagnosis often involves a multidisciplinary approach, combining clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and genetic testing. Although there is currently no cure for TSC, treatment focuses on managing symptoms and complications to improve the quality of life for affected individuals. This activity highlights the evaluation and management of TSC, shedding light on the critical role played by different members of the interprofessional team. By working collaboratively, healthcare professionals offer comprehensive and well-coordinated care to both patients and their families, aiming to optimize outcomes in managing this complex condition.
