We report on a 34-year-old woman diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis complex. The patient was admitted for respiratory manifestations, while multi-organ involvement made the diagnostic process challenging. Genetic testing revealed a novel mutation TSC1 c.2094_2110del (p.His699Ter), which expands the disease-causing variant spectrum. Our results may facilitate the disease diagnostics and help to devise genetic counseling and targeted gene therapy.
我们报告了一例诊断为结节性硬化症的 34 岁女性患者。该患者因呼吸系统表现入院,而多器官受累使诊断过程具有挑战性。基因检测显示一种新的 TSC1 c.2094_2110del(p.His699Ter)突变,该突变扩展了致病变异谱。我们的研究结果可能有助于疾病的诊断,并有助于制定遗传咨询和靶向基因治疗方案。
