Pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis

Pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (PLCH) is a rare disease of smokers often presenting as pneumothoraces or dyspnea (128-130). CT scans in PLCH shows numerous thin-walled cystic lesions, typically 10 mm in size however, cysts may coalesce, sometimes exceeding 5 cm and assume bizarre shapes [Pg.30]

Numerous, thin-walled cysts may coalesce Predilection for upper and middle lung zones Peribronchiolar nodules (67-78%) [Pg.31]

Sparing of costophrenic angles Pleural effusions rare [Pg.31]
