Core Tip |
Tuberous sclerosis complex with primary lymphedema (TSC-PLE) is a rare, congenital and systemic disease closely related to gene mutations. The clinical manifestations of TSC-PLE are diverse. Multiple imaging methods can detect systemic organ and tissue lesions, which are important for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Rapamycin-targeted therapy is the main treatment for this disease and can simultaneously treat the symptoms of both TSC and PLE. Liposuction can effectively improve limb swelling in patients. This case is the 17th patient with TSC-PLE worldwide. And this case has comprehensive clinical, imaging, genetic testing and treatment. |
