lymphangioleiomyomatosis[edit]
should this redirect to lymphangioleiomyomatosis or should this be a list of diseases that might present with a pulmonary cyst? Je.rrt (talk) 23:00, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
made into a listing style page[edit]
Because its such a general term, and there are already articles covering the angles of a Pulmonary cyst, I have created a list to relevant articles. Je.rrt (talk) 17:46, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
Issues[edit]
The current text states:
- Pulmonary cyst may refer to:
To start, a cyst is an anatomical feature and lymphangioleiomyomatosis is a disease, so this is a category error. Moreover, there are other diseases that give rise to pulmonary cysts, such as Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome and pleuropulmonary blastoma, so the list is misleadingly short. And aren't there benign pulmonary cysts that are not considered a symptom of any specific disease? The best solution may be to turn the dab page into an article, even if initially a stub. Finally, I suspect that "lung cyst" is simply a synonym of "pulmonary cyst", so shouldn't Lung cyst redirect to Pulmonary cyst? --Lambiam 01:03, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
