Abstract

The aim of the study – to learn the features of diagnosis and treatment of patients with pulmonary form of lymphangioleіomyomatosis (LAM).

Materials and Methods. A 26 year-old patient was on treatment at Kyiv City Hospital No. 17 from 07.04.2007 to 16.03.2012. She underwent a complete clinical and diagnostic system of examinations and treatment in accordance with the protocols in force.

Results and Discussion. The article presents a review of the literature on LAM and a description of the clinical case, as well as the features of diagnosis and treatment of LAM.

Modern methods of examination, surgical interventions and rational conservative therapy are the method of choice in diagnosing and treating LAM. Comprehensive examination is a prerequisite for choosing a rational tactic for further treatment.

Conclusions. Until now, LAM remains an undiagnosed disease, and its prevalence in the world population reaches 100.000. The optimal treatment results are achieved with a properly established diagnosis.
