Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1PM2PM4PP3
The NM_000548.5(TSC2):c.4852_4860delGTCTTCCAC(p.Val1618_His1620del) variant causes a conservative inframe deletion, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as not provided (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. V1618V) has been classified as Likely benign.
TSC2 (HGNC:12363): (TSC complex subunit 2) This gene is a tumor suppressor gene that encodes the growth inhibitory protein tuberin. Tuberin interacts with hamartin to form the TSC protein complex which functions in the control of cell growth. This TSC protein complex negatively regulates mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling which is a major regulator of anabolic cell growth. Mutations in this gene have been associated with tuberous sclerosis and lymphangioleiomyomatosis. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 4 benign, 37 uncertain in NM_000548.5
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM4
Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_000548.5.
PP3
No computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, but strongly conserved according to phyloP
