For some value of $x,$ $0 < x < 180,$
\[\tan 53^\circ \tan 81^\circ \tan x^\circ = \tan 53^\circ + \tan 81^\circ + \tan x^\circ.\]Find $x.$
Isolating $\tan x^\circ,$ we find
\begin{align*}
\tan x &= \frac{\tan 53^\circ + \tan 81^\circ}{\tan 53^\circ \tan 81^\circ - 1} \\
&= -\frac{\tan 53^\circ + \tan 81^\circ}{1 - \tan 53^\circ \tan 81^\circ}.
\end{align*}From the angle addition formula, this is equal to
\[-\tan (53^\circ + 81^\circ) = -\tan 134^\circ = \tan 46^\circ.\]Therefore, $x = \boxed{46}.$
