The multiple endocrine neoplasia (M.E.N.) syndromes consist of a group of proliferative disorders that selectively target specific sets of endocrine and soft tissue cells. Here we report a case of lymphangioleiomyoma of the lung in a patient with multiple endocrine neoplasia Type I (M.E.N. I). This is the first time such an association has been reported. In our opinion it could possibly be ascribed to the genetic predisposition to proliferative disorders of patients with M.E.N. syndromes.
多发性内分泌肿瘤(M.E.N.)综合征是一组增殖性疾病,选择性地靶向特定的内分泌和软组织细胞群。在此,我们报告一例I型多发性内分泌肿瘤(M.E.N. I)患者发生肺淋巴管平滑肌瘤的病例。这是首次报告此类关联。我们认为,这可能归因于M.E.N.综合征患者发生增殖性疾病的遗传易感性。
