Pulmonary manifestations in tuberous sclerosis complex.
Tuberous sclerosis complex has manifestations in many organ systems, including brain, heart, kidney, skin, and lung. The primary manifestations in the lung are lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia (MMPH). LAM affects almost exclusively women, and causes cystic lung destruction, pneumothorax, and chylous pleural effusions. LAM can lead to dyspnea, oxygen dependence, and respiratory failure, with more rapid disease progression during the premenopausal years. In contrast, MMPH affects men and women equally, causing small nodular pulmonary deposits of type II pneumocytes that rarely progress to symptomatic disease. Here, we review the clinical features and pathogenesis of LAM and MMPH.
