Abstract:
Connective Tissue Disease-associate Interstitial Lung Disease (CTD-ILD) treatment depends on early accurate diagnosis. We hereby report a case of a 66-year-old man who has been diagnosed with CTD-ILD according to his High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) and symptoms. In the meantime, we find axonemal dynein heavy chain gene 5 (DNAH5) variants in his Whole-Exome Sequence (WES). We wonder if DNAH5 is a biomarker of CTD-ILD.
