Recurrent Pneumothorax Caused by an Unexpected Lymphangioleiomyomatosis: A Case Report
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis is a rare disease characterized by the proliferation of atypical smooth muscle cells. Recurrent pneumothorax is a frequent complication of lymphangioleiomyomatosis. We present the case of a 41-year-old woman who presented with recurrent pneumothorax. Video-assisted thoracic surgery was performed. We did not suspect the possibility of lymphangioleiomyomatosis because of the presence of very few cysts on chest computed tomography.
