Sporadic Lymphangioleiomyomatosis in a 35-Year-Old Female Patient: A Rare Cause of Spontaneous Pneumothorax.

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare, progressive cystic lung disease that primarily affects women of reproductive age. We report a case of a 35-year-old Caucasian female with a history of seasonal nasal allergies who presented to the emergency department with acute-onset shortness of breath and a chronic dry cough. The acute episode closely resembled a prior hospitalization one month earlier for spontaneous pneumothorax, which had been managed with a pigtail catheter.

LPS comprises several histological variants, among which pleomorphic liposarcoma (PL) constitutes a rare and highly aggressive subtype. PL is most commonly found in the extremities and presents primarily in individuals aged 50 and above.
