Overview

Common physical examination findings in patients with subependymal giant cell astrocytoma include hypomelanotic macules, retinal hamartomas, sensory deficits, and muscle weakness. Because subependymal giant cell astrocytoma is predominantly seen in people with tuberous sclerosis, the examination findings listed are those seen in tuberous sclerosis patients.

Physical Examination

Due to the fact that subependymal giant cell astrocytoma is predominantly seen in people with tuberous sclerosis, majority of the physical examination findings are those in tuberous sclerosis patients. The common physical examination findings include:[1][2][3][4][5]
