Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is a genetic tumor syndrome characterized by lung cysts, spontaneous pneumothorax, fibrofolliculomas, and renal cell cancer. Because of its rarity and clinical heterogeneity, much is still unknown regarding the course of the disease and individual risk assessment. Therefore, we studied nonenvironmental risk factors for pneumothorax in a large sample of patients with...
