Ossifying fibroma of the maxilla and tuberous sclerosis complex.
A 19-year-old man with refractory generalized epilepsy related to tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) (figure 1) complained of chronic left facial swelling. Physical examination disclosed typical mucocutaneous findings of TSC (hypomelanotic macules, shagreen patch, ungual fibromas, facial angiofibromas) and a hardened well-limited mass in his left maxilla, evidenced as an odontogenic extensive lef...

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are two different genetic diseases. Although these two diseases are associated very rarely, the association is well recognized. This occurs due to a large deletion involving both PKD-1 and TSC-2 genes on chromosome 16. This is also known as TSC-2/PKD-1 contiguous gene syndrome. We report a 26-year-old fema...
