TSC (Tuberous Sclerosis Complex) is a rare genetic condition that causes tumours to grow in major organs of the body.

It affects more than 2,000 people in Australia and thousands more families and friends.
TSA is the only organisation in Australia supporting people living with TSC.

Awareness is critical …

1 child each week

Every week in Australia another child is born with TSC. Two-thirds have no family history.  Many children are not diagnosed until they experience symptoms such as infantile spasms or seizures.

1 million worldwide

Nearly 1 million people are estimated to have TSC. Life-long surveillance is essential. Help shine a light on TSC by getting involved in TSC Global Awareness Day held annually on 15 May.
