ECG changes mimicking MI in neonatal TSC rhabdomyomas may resolve spontaneously without intervention; leaves open need for prospective data on management.
The article presents a rare clinical case of a child of the first month of life with heart attack-like changes on the ECG and multiple rhabdomyomas in the heart, associated with tuberous sclerosis complex. The child was followed up for 11 months. The patient did not require therapy. Dynamic observation showed normalization of ECG parameters – no signs of myocardial infarction.

Dzhaffarova et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Multiple heart rhabdomyomas and tuberous sclerosis complex (n=1). Dynamic observation was evaluated on Normalization of ECG parameters. Dynamic observation of an infant with multiple heart rhabdomyomas and infarct-like ECG changes showed spontaneous normalization of ECG parameters without therapy over 11 months.
