Ambulatory oxygen in interstitial lung disease: Table 1–

our knowledge, ILD has never previously been related to heterozygous SFTPB mutation in either adults or children.The patient's clinical situation was characterised by a normal pulmonary pressure and a transient need for oxygen supplementation; only low doses of oral prednisone were required.Presently, it is not possible to predict the patient's clinical course, as no other similar cases have been reported.Lung transplantation currently represents the only treatment option for this disease, but it is hoped that new treatments will be developed that are based on a better understanding of the disease.
