Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a multisystemic disease associated with mutations of the TSC 2 gene. It has two presentations: sporadic (S-LAM) and associated with the tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC-LAM). LAM runs together with pulmonary parenchymal cystic disease. However, patients with S-LAM can develop mediastinal, retroperitoneal and renal alterations, with adenomegaly, lymphangioleiomyomas, and angiomyolipomas.
We present the case of a female patient with S-LAM and cystic lung disease associated with retroperitoneal and pelvic lymphangioleiomyomas.
