Physical Examination

Skin

Adenoma sebaceum.
Tuberous sclerosis; Subungual fibroma; Beneath the Left Index Nail
Tuberous sclerosis, Periungual Fibroma; Lateral Side of Left Great Toe Nail

Skin

The skin is examined under a Wood's lamp. The most common skin abnormalities include:

Facial angiofibromas
Ungual or subungual fibromas
Hypomelanic macules ("ash leaf spots")
Forehead plaques
Shagreen patches
Molluscum fibrosum or skin tags
Cafe-au-lait spots or flat brown marks
Poliosis

Head

Pitted tooth enamel
Rubbery growths on the tongue or gums

Eyes

Retinal lesions - astrocytic hamartomas, which may cause blindness.
Non-retinal lesions associated with TSC include
- Coloboma
- Angiofibromas of the eyelids
- Papilledema (related to hydrocephalus)

Heart

A heart murmur can be heard due to the obstruction of blood flow by rhabdomyomas.

Lungs

Coarse rales are heard when lung parenchyma is involved.
Bronchial breathing and bronchophony are heard on auscultation when multiple cysts occur in the lungs.

Extremities

Rough growths under or around the fingernails and toenails

Neurologic

Abnormal size of head in children - due to hydrocephalus
