Lady Windermere Syndrome: An Interesting Clinical and Radiological Presentation
Lady Windermere Syndrome is an uncommon pulmonary disease characte-ristically observed in elderly white females with chronic cough suppression and dyspnea. It is classically associated with Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) species. An 84-year-old female was evaluated for longstanding non-productive cough and intermittent dyspnea. A chest computed tomography scan revealed densities in the right upper lobe and scattered nodular-cystic bronchiectasis. Biopsy was negative for malignancy; however, bronchioalveolar lavage studies showed presence of MAC. Patient was treated with a 12-month course of azithromycin, rifampin and ethambutol resulting in resolution of her symptoms.
