Abstract
The authors studied the ultrastructural morphology of the lung in one case of Bourneville's tuberous sclerosis with pulmonary involvement. The observations in this report are similar to those previously reported in pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis and further emphasize the striking resemblance between the two diseases.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
