  • Title: Giant aortic aneurysm and rhabdomyomas in infant with tuberous sclerosis (case report).
    Author: Patiño Bahena E, Calderón-Colmenero J, Buendía A, Juanico A.
    Journal: Arch Cardiol Mex; 2005; 75(4):448-50. PubMed ID: 16544770.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a giant aneurysm and dissection of the abdominal aorta in an eight month old infant. Imaging studies especially a helicoid computerized axial tomography with 3D reconstruction, showed a lesion which extended from the diaphragm to the iliac arteries. The clinical findings and the above mentioned studies revealed non-obstructive heart rhabdomyomas, tubers in the brain and the abdominal aortic aneurysm, all of which were consistent with the diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis.
