Early Diagnosis of Tuberous Sclerosis Complex: Prenatal Diagnosis.

A schedule of proper care of children with tuberous sclerosis complex can be established during the perinatal period due to education of women to report for mandatory ultrasound examinations during pregnancy, the good quality of ultrasound, and referral to MR imaging if a cardiac tumor is depicted on ultrasound. Gynecologists and pediatric cardiologists performing fetal ultrasound and radiologists performing prenatal MR imaging are a key to early diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis complex in many cases.
