✦ Synopsis

Past experience in this hospital has shown that the neuroradiological diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis is often made before the diagnosis is clinically suspected. We present a child in such a circumstance in whom axial and coronal CT demonstrated significant neoplastic progression of this disease. The presenting symptom was merely that of increased intracranial pressure.
