Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure Due to COVID-19 in a Patient With Underlying Lymphangioleiomyomatosis.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare disorder that can cause lesions that develop into cysts, most commonly in the lung parenchyma and renal angiomyolipomas. We report a case of a young female with LAM who was admitted to the hospital for a COVID-19 infection, with the objective of discussing the management of LAM with concurrent COVID-19 infection. She ultimately showed overall clinical improvement after receiving dexamethasone and remdesivir, while holding her outpatient mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor. When patients with rare diseases acquire COVID-19, an individualized approach to treatment is often most effective as information and studies may be limited.
