    Author: Komori S, Bessho T, Fukuda H, Kanazawa R, Koyama K.
    Journal: Arch Gynecol Obstet; 1995; 256(4):213-8. PubMed ID: 7503595.
    Abstract:
    Since 1973, we have identified 4 cardiac tumors by ultrasonography in fetal or early postnatal life. Tuberous sclerosis was diagnosed in three infants whose mother was also affected. The first infant died from acute cardiac failure after birth, and the second required cardiac surgery. The third infant had a cardiac tumor and a focal seizure at the age of 8 months. The cardiac tumor disappeared at the age of 2 years. The fourth cardiac rhabdomyoma may be the only sign of tuberous sclerosis.
