Tuberous sclerosis in early infancy: a case report.
The diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis in an infant was delayed by 3 months. Failure to take an adequate patient history because of a language barrier between parents and caregivers and to observe the classic stigmata of tuberous sclerosis contributed to the delay. A brief review of the case and the diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis is presented.
