Pulmonary disease is a rare manifestation of tuberous sclerosis. Respiratory symptoms often progress to severe pulmonary insufficiency and death may ensue within a few years of diagnosis. We describe a case where a computerized tomographic scan aided early diagnosis in a patient with spontaneous pneumothorax and subtle, nonspecific changes on a plain x-ray film.
