The lost chILD: a case report of delayed diagnosis of Surfactant Protein C Deficiency in a 15-year-old African male

2024-10-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background:</bold> Childhood interstitial lung disease (chILD) encompasses a heterogeneous group of rare disorders characterized by respiratory distress, hypoxemia, exercise intolerance, and distinctive radiological findings. Despite the variable age of onset, these conditions often present with overlapping symptoms and variable progression, even with identical genetic mutations....
