Splenic involvement in a stillborn fetus with tuberous sclerosis and multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas.

Histiocytoid cells in the spleen have been previously reported in only seven neonates and one fetus. We report an unusual case of multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas in a stillborn fetus with TSC who had clusters of histiocytoid cells in the spleen. These large cell...

Cardiac tumours were identified on ultrasonography in fetal or early postnatal life in five infants. Tuberous sclerosis was subsequently diagnosed in all five. Only one infant required operation. Regression of the tumour occurred in three. No infant had hypomelanotic macules at birth, and they took up to two years to appear.
