نبذة مختصرة
Two cases of pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis, with survival between 12 and 28 years are described. Both were treated with medroxyprogesterone acetate with a slight initial improvement in both lung function and exercise tolerance, and no further deterioration during the period of follow-up of 10-20 months. The results are discussed and other reports of hormonal treatment of this rare condition are reviewed.
