It usually presents in childhood but can also be diagnosed in adults. GLA encompasses a wide spectrum of clinical manifestations ranging from single-organ involvement to generalised disease. Given the rarity of the disease, most of the information regarding it comes from case reports. To date, no clinical trials concerning treatment are available. This review focuses on thoracic GLA and summarises possible diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.Possible diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to generalised lymphatic anomaly (lymphangiomatosis) http://ow.ly/4n4pgU %U https://err.ersjournals.com/content/errev/25/140/170.full.pdf
