| pubmed:abstractText |
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare pulmonary disease of women of unknown etiology. Diffuse cystic changes associated with multifocal clusters of smooth muscle-like cells (LAM cells) replace normal lung parenchyma, leading to progressive loss of lung function. Reports of exacerbations of LAM with the use of exogenous estrogens and during pregnancy suggest an association between hormones and clinical deterioration.
