"In one study, 44% of cases had concurrent or previous malignancy 9, and there was a specific association with adenocarcinomas, both lung adenocarcinoma and metastatic adenocarcinomas. Additionally, there are associations with hypoxaemic states including pulmonary embolism and interstitial lung disease13, 14, which suggests a hyperplastic or reactive pathogenesis 6. Intracranial meningioma is also associated with diffuse pulmonary meningotheliomatosis and may be recognised either before or after diagnosis 14."

"There is a strong female predilection, with one literature review of surgically proven diffuse pulmonary meningotheliomatosis finding that 92% of cases occurred in females 9. It is most commonly detected between the 5th and 7th decades of life, however, the reported age range is from 30 to 80 years. Although most are too small to be detected by CT, the autopsy incidence has been reported as 7.2%, depending on the extent of sampling 11."
