Bilateral trapped lung with concomitant Wermer's syndrome and cutis laxa.

We report a rare occurrence of trapped lung associated with Wermer's syndrome and cutis laxa. A 25-year-old man with bilateral trapped lung presented with respiratory distress. Additional investigation revealed adenoma of the parathyroid and hypophysis, a neuroendocrine abdominal tumor, and cutis laxa. Successful treatment of the respiratory symptoms was achieved through a median sternotomy with bilateral decortication, and excision of the bilateral fibrous pleural bands and bullae on the right upper lobe. Octreotide therapy was initiated and a percutaneous ultrasound-guided alcohol injection to the parathyroid adenoma was done. The patient has gynecomastia, acromegaly, and kyphoscoliosis. The patient remains well at 19 months after treatment.
