#2754 Somatostatin Analogs (SSA) in Patients with Symptomatic Diffuse Idiopathic Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cell Hyperplasia (DIPNECH)

Introduction: DIPNECH is characterized by a proliferation of pulmonary neuroendocrine cells and multifocal neuroendocrine tumorlets and/or tumors. Although usually indolent, DIPNECH can cause chronic cough and dyspnea. There is very limited information on treatment.

#2002 Pulmonary Function Test Physiology and Progression in Diffuse Idiopathic Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cell Hyperplasia

Introduction: Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH) is a rare condition characterised by a generalised proliferation of pulmonary neuroendocrine cells within the respiratory epithelium. Little is known of its affects on pulmonary function both at the time of diagnosis and prospectively.

#924 Somatostatin Analogs (SSA) in Patients with Diffuse Idiopathic Pulmonary Neuroendocrine Cell Hyperplasia: A Case Series

Introduction: Diffuse idiopathic pulmonary neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia (DIPNECH) is a rare lung disease associated with proliferation of neuroendocrine cells in the lung. Although typically considered a benign condition, DIPNECH causes chronic, progressive cough and dyspnea. There have been no treatments described in the literature.
