DPL may present asymptomatically in middle age; leaves open whether imaging alone distinguishes it from lymphangitic metastasis.
Case Report (n=1)
No
Diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis, typically seen in children and young adults, can present in middle-aged adults and mimic lymphangitic metastasis on imaging.
Lim et al. (2014) conducted a case report in Diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis (n=1). Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery wedge resection was evaluated on Diagnosis of diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis. A 52-year-old asymptomatic woman was diagnosed with diffuse pulmonary lymphangiomatosis, a rare condition typically seen in children, following surgical wedge resection for progressive interstitial septal thickening.
