Severe bleeding complications and multiple kidney transplants in a patient with tuberous sclerosis complex caused by a novel TSC2 missense variant
We presented an extremely severe case of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) in a female patient with recurring, life-threatening bleeding complications related to renal angi-omyolipomas. Massive intratumoral hemorrhage required surgical removal of both angiomyolipomatous kidneys and kidney transplantation. During the follow-up period, the patient developed severe metrorrhagia that eventually led to hysterectomy and salpingo-oophorectomy. Bleeding from the operative sites caused the loss of the first kid- ney transplant received from the mother, and immediate hemorrhagic shock led to the loss of the second, cadaveric kidney allograft. The third kidney transplant had a successful outcome. Pathological analysis of all tissue specimens showed TSC-associated lesions and deformed blood vessels in the surgically removed organs. Molecular genetic analysis of TSC1 and TSC2 in the DNA of peripheral leukocytes identified a novel TSC2 c.3599G>C (p.R1200P) variant. Functional assessment confirmed the likely pathogenicity of the TSC2 c.3599G>C (p.R1200P) variant. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the c.3599G>C (p.R1200P) variant in exon 29 of the TSC2 gene related to a severe clinical course and multiple kidney transplants in a patient with TSC
