ABSTRACT
Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is easily discernible by a myriad of manifestations, most notably dermatological. It is associated with well known and recognised intra-abdominal tumours like angiomyolipoma of the kidney. However, rarer tumours like pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours can occur in the setting of TSC. A high index of suspicion is necessary to identify and treat these lesions early in their natural course. Early identification augurs well with complete surgical excision and excellent survival.
