title: Interstitial lung disease in a child with antisynthetase syndrome.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Antisynthetase Syndrome is associated with interstitial lung disease in adult patients, but this has not been described in children.
  
  
  METHODS
  A 13-year-old with interstitial lung disease due to Antisynthetase Syndrome and pulmonary arterial hypertension underwent emergent bilateral lung transplantation after a rapid clinical decline.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We present the clinical, radiographic, and histological findings of a child with interstitial lung disease due to Antisynthetase Syndrome.
