- W2953646881 abstract "Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is a rare autosomal-dominant inherited disorder characterized by inactivation of the gene Folliculin (FLCN), pulmonary cysts with recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax, dermatological lesions, and an increased risk of developing renal malignancies.We aimed to investigate the real prevalence of BHDS and its prevalence among patients with a familial history of pneumothorax.From July 2014 to December 2016, we consecutively studied all patients with spontaneous pneumothorax and a positive family history for the same condition referring to our Institution. The suspicious cases underwent genetic analysis of the BHDS-causative gene FLCN. FLCN-positive cases were further evaluated with routine blood tests, chest radiography, chest CT, abdominal MRI, and dermatological evaluation.Among 114 patients admitted with spontaneous pneumothorax, 7 patients had a family history of pneumothorax, and 6/7 (85.7%) patients had positive genetic test for FLCN as well as 7/13 family members. Pulmonary cysts were found in all patients with a FLCN-positive genetic test. Most patients (10/13, 76.9%) had tiny pulmonary cysts less than 1 cm in diameter. The vast majority of cysts were intraparenchymal (12/13, 92.3%) and located in lower lobes. Dermatological lesions were found in 7/13 (54%) patients, renal cysts in 4/13 (31%) patients, and renal cancer in 1 (1/13, 7.7%) patient.Although BHDS is considered a rare disease, BHDS underlies spontaneous pneumothorax more often than usually believed, especially whenever a family history of pneumothorax is present. Diagnosis of BHDS is essential to start monitoring patients for the risk of developing renal malignancies." @default.
