Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disease that is, besides cutaneous and visceral organ manifestations, typically associated with a severe, usually drug refractory epilepsy at a very early stage of the disease. Due to its direct effect on the mTOR signaling pathway dysregulated by TSC and its synergistic effects on other organ manifestations, the rapamycin derivative everolimus (EVE) is increasingly being used. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of EVE in patients with TSC-associated, refractory epilepsy.
