A Comprehensive Guide To Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

Treatment

There are various methods of treatment, but it is not entirely certain which type of treatment the patient will need until their doctor has been able to conduct a thorough examination. There are medications, surgeries, therapy, behavioral management, psychiatric therapy, and even vocational services currently being used to treat TSC. Medication is used when the patient suffers from seizures or other health problems caused by a tumor. Surgery is often required when tumor growth has affected the ability of any one organ to perform its necessary duties. If a child suffers from acne-like bumps, there is an ointment available to help minimize the appearance of these bumps to ensure the growths do not affect the skin any further.
