Differential Diagnosis #1: Cystic Lung Disease
Today's Daily Diff is for cystic lung disease. Specifically, for cases with multiple lung cysts. One mnemonic is to remember whenever you see a lung cyst, refer to your LIST:
L | Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, Lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia, Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis |
I | Infection (TB, Staphylococcus, PCP) |
S | Sarcoid |
T | Tuberous sclerosis |
