In Tuberous Sclerosis, what are the genetic mutations most commonly seen and what protein associated with?
Autosomonal dominant

75% = new spon't mutations

TSC2>1 (3:1)

Mutation of tumor suppressor genes:
1) TSC1 = chr9q34, hamartin
2) TSC2 = chr 16q13, more severe, encodes tuberin

o EEG (if seizures)

Cardiac:
o EKG
o echocardiography for cardiac rhabdomyomas (< 1y.o.)
