Postmenopausal progression of pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis
Though pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare disease that affects women in the reproductive years, there have been some reports in postmenopausal women, and even a few reports of pulmonary LAM in postmenopausal women without exogenous estrogen. This is the first report describing progression of pulmonary LAM after menopause. Physicians should be aware that pulmonary LAM could progress after menopause, although the course might run slower than that of LAM in the younger patients.
