Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal-dominant neurocutaneous syndrome with an approximate incidence of 1 in 10,000–50,000. The cardinal features of TSC are skin lesions, convulsive seizures, and mental retardation. Here, we report a case of TSC in a male patient who presented with oral and cutaneous manifestations without mental retardation or history of convulsive seizures, which is very rarely reported to the best of authors' knowledge.
