Trait
Paraseptal emphysema
Paraseptal emphysema is characterized by predominant involvement of the distal alveoli and their ducts and sacs. It is characteristically bounded by any pleural surface and the interlobular septa. This emphysema is characterized by subpleural and peribronchovascular regions of low attenuation separated by intact interlobular septa, sometimes associated with bullae.

Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Paraseptal emphysema is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.
| Gene | How often it is seen | Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| ABCA3ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 3 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
