Pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis and Bourneville's tuberous sclerosis with pulmonary involvement: the same disease?

The observations in this report are similar to those previously reported in pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis and further emphasize the striking resemblance between the two diseases.
