Unilateral cataract associated with eyelid ash-leaf macule in tuberous sclerosis complex

Abstract: A 9-month-old male child with tuberous sclerosis complex presented with ash-leaf macules on the left periocular region and ipsilateral dense cataract. Fundus showed retinal astrocytic hamartomas. This case is reported for unilaterality of congenital cataract on the same side of eyelid ash-leaf macule in tuberous sclerosis.

“…On rare occasions, patients with TSC may show segmental areas of hypomelanosis which can best be explained as a superimposed mosaic manifestation of the ordinary disseminated ash-leaf spots. Conspicuous examples have inadvertantly been documented by Ortonne et al 33 and Jindal et al 34 Moreover, in a 9month-old boy with bilateral disseminated ash-leaf spots, cerebral tubers and seizures, Selvaraj et al 35 described an unusually large 'ash-leaf macule' involving his left periocular region with ipsilateral cataract (Fig. 7).…”
