Clinically affected; diagnosed at age 5; seizures began at 5 months of age; walked at 12 months of age; speech delay (spoke at 2.5-3 years old); retinal lesion at inferior medial aspect of the left disc; adenoma sebaceum on the face; multiple ash-leaf hypopigmented macules over the back, arm and chest; confetti-like hypopigmented macules on lower legs; papular fibromatous lesions over the posterior trunk; 3 cm shagreen patch on right flank; skin tags on anterior chest and neck; irregular cafe-au-lait spot over the left trunk and left knee; multiple ungual fibromas on fingers and toes; fibromas on the forehead and scalp; history of behavioral problems in childhood/early teen years: hyperactive, aggressive, mal-adaptive, easily distractible, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, poor interpersonal skills; seizure-free between the ages of 15 months to 11 years (while taking phenobarbitol and Dilantin) and again from age 18 to age 22 (while taking Tegretol); WAIS evaluation revealed intellectual functioning at age 16 was at lower end of the average range; abnormal EEG (age 16 – presence of sharp, spike and slow waves in the right temporal region); age 16-basal ganglia calcifications on skull x-ray; CT scan at age 17 noted subependymal calcifications; abnormal EEG (age 21 – presence of mild to moderate diffuse slowing but no epileptiform features); normal kidney ultrasound at age 21; at age 22, normal neurological exam and emotional problems have subsided with medication and psychotherapy; no mutations were identified in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes using PCR direct sequencing of all coding exons and 50 bases of the flanking intron; polymorphisms in TSC2 include 1578C>T, 1600-14C>T, 2546-12C>T, 2580T>C, 2639+44C>G, 5202T>C, and 5397G>C; medication history: Tegretol, Dilantin, Phenobarbital, Mysoline, Mellaril, Ritalin, Thorazine; same donor as GM06120 lymphocyte. |
