title: Coexistent cardiac rhabdomyoma with mitral valve anomaly in patients with tuberous sclerosis: a case report.
abstract: Cardiac rhabdomyoma is frequently associated with tuberous sclerosis. However, very few cardiac malformations have been described with tuberous sclerosis. We report a rare case of coexistent cardiac tumor with mitral valve anomaly in a patient with tuberous sclerosis, who developed mitral regurgitation and required a surgical procedure with histological confirmation of cardiac rhabdomyoma.
