Graves' disease, which is an organ-specific autoimmune disorder, is the most frequent cause of thyrotoxicosis. Females are more often affected than males. The clinical pattern varies, however, and nearly every organ system may be involved. This case study describes a formerly healthy young woman
BACKGROUND
Pulmonary involvement in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) includes lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia (MMPH). This retrospective study investigated pulmonary involvement in Japanese TSC patients and pulmonary function testing in
BACKGROUND
The majority of multifocal micronodular pneumocyte hyperplasia associated with tuberous sclerosis complex is diagnosed with the classical clinical triad of seizures, mental retardation, and skin lesions. We report a rare case of tuberous sclerosis complex with no classical clinical
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is an autosomal-dominant disorder characterized by mental retardation, seizures, and central nervous system and visceral hamartomas. Pulmonary involvement manifesting as lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) occurs in 1% of patients (all women) with TSC. Micronodular

Antiepileptics may affect cortisol metabolism through CYP3A4. There is little known about ethosuximide.
METHODS
Our patient is a 12-year-old girl with salt-wasting congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) owing to 21 hydroxylase deficiency. A standard treatment regimen was initiated with
