Description

Birt–Hogg–Dubé Syndrome (BHDS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder associated with mutations in the Foliculin gene (FLCN), characterized by skin lesions, renal tumors (often malignant or leading to malignancy), and lung cysts, often leading to spontaneous pneumothorax. Lung function is generally preserved in these patients, which is why lung transplantation (LTx) has not been performed in this population to date.
