Abstract

Pathogenic variants in the Surfactant Protein C gene ( SFTPC) result in fibrotic childhood interstitial lung disease (chILD). We previously reported three children with SFTPC pathogenic variants with respiratory failure who were supported by chronic invasive ventilation via tracheostomy as an alternative to lung transplantation or comfort care [(1)](#ref-0001). We present two children with SFTPC pathogenic variants treated with non-invasive ventilation (NIV) (Figure 1).
