Tuberous sclerosis is a rare clinical entity, commonly considered as a phakomatosis, characterized by multiple tumors (hamartomas) of the brain, skin, eye and many organs as kidney, heart, spleen and•lung. It is inherited in an irregular authosomal dominant fashion. Ocular findings are multiple retinal astrocytic hamartomas and more rarely non retinal fibrous tumors. Authors consider clinical and diagnostic features of tuberous sclerosis and describe a case of vitreous hemorrhage complicating retinal astrocytic hamartomas

Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis is a rare clinical entity, commonly considered as a phakomatosis, characterized by multiple tumors (hamartomas) of the brain, skin, eye and many organs as kidney, heart, spleen and•lung. It is inherited in an irregular authosomal dominant fashion. Ocular findings are multiple retinal astrocytic hamartomas and more rarely non retinal fibrous tumors. Authors consider clinical and diagnostic features of tuberous sclerosis and describe a case of vitreous hemorrhage complicating retinal astrocytic hamartomas
