  • Title: Renal cystic disease associated with tuberous sclerosis complex: renal failure treated by cadaveric kidney transplantation.
    Author: Rosenberg JC, Bernstein J, Rosenberg B.
    Journal: Clin Nephrol; 1975; 4(3):109-12. PubMed ID: 1102175.
    Abstract:
    Chronic renal failure in patients with tuberous sclerosis may be secondary to diffuse cystic disease, a lesion less common than the better known hamartomatous angiomyolipomas. Uremia, in the case of a nineteen-year old female with end-stage renal disease, was associated with severely atrophic kidneys that contained numerous collapsed and scarred cysts. No hamartomas were present. The patient survived for more than three years following cadaveric renal transplantation.
