Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Introduction: Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) occurs either associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) or as sporadic disease (S-LAM). Risk factors for development of S-LAM are unknown. We hypothesised that DNA sequence variants outside of TSC2/TSC1 might be associated with susceptibility for S-LAM and performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS).

426 European ancestry cases, 852 European ancestry controls
