neurological complication was epilepsy (91%). Statistically significant associations were found between a) fibrous plaque of forehead with ipsilateral structural cerebral lesions or contralateral seizures (p<0.01) and b) shagreen patches (p<0.001) and angiofibromas of the face (p<0.001) with renal manifestations. Shagreen patch was associated with ipsilateral renal involvement.
Conclusions:Fibrous plaque of forehead may be considered a cutaneous marker of ipsilateral central nervous system manifestations, Angiofibromas of the face and shagreen patches may be considered as markers of renal involvement.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
