Lung cysts as indicator for Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome.

Lung - 1 Feb 2014

Johannesma P C, Thunnissen E, Postmus P E

Abstract excerpt

In this case, we describe a patient with a history of recurrent pneumothorax. Based on CT-thorax and histopathology of the lung tissue, the Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome was suspected and confirmed after genetic testing. Recognizing this syndrome by pulmonologists and radiologists is very important, because the risk on developing of renal cell cancer is high.
