PULMONARY ALVEOLAR MICROLITHIASIS
Description
Pulmonary alveolar microlithiasis is a rare disease characterized by the deposition of calcium phosphate microliths throughout the lungs. Most patients are asymptomatic for several years or even for decades, and, generally, the diagnosis is incidental to clinical investigations unrelated to the specific disorder. Cases with early onset or rapid progression are rare. A 'sandstorm-appearing' chest roentgenogram is a typical diagnostic finding. The onset of this potentially lethal disease varies from the neonatal period to old age, and the disease follows a long-term progressive course, resulting in a slow deterioration of lung functions. About one-third of the reported cases are said to be familial (summary by Corut et al., 2006).
Most common symptoms of PULMONARY ALVEOLAR MICROLITHIASIS
- Pain
- Respiratory distress
- Respiratory failure
- Dyspnea
- Cough

TESTICULAR MICROLITHIASIS
Description
Testicular microlithiasis, the deposition of calcium phosphate microliths within the seminiferous tubules, has a population prevalence of 0.6 to 9% (Kim et al., 2003). Middleton et al. (2002) found that it was associated with a majority of primary testicular malignancies. Miller and Sidhu (2002) found that it was present in 1% of male idiopathic infertility cases.
Most common symptoms of TESTICULAR MICROLITHIASIS
- Neoplasm
- Infertility
- Testicular neoplasm
- Testicular microlithiasis
- Germ cell neoplasia
