Description |
Tuberous sclerosis is transmitted as an autosomal-dominant disorder with markedly variable expression, a penetrance approaching 95% in families, and a high mutation rate. Up to two-thirds of the cases are new mutations. The mutation rate was calculated as 2.5 per 100,000 gametes. A parental age effect for new mutations has not been observed. Mosaicism maybe a feature in a small percent of patients. |
