Abstract

We report a 29-year-old woman who had prominent cutaneous markers of tuberous sclerosis, with subependymal nodules and renal cysts on computerized tomographic scan, who also showed multiple angiokeratomas widely distributed on the buttocks and posterior thighs. Enzymatic studies ruled out Fabry's disease and other lysosomal storage disorders. This is the first reported association of widespread angiokeratomas and tuberous sclerosis.
