Mild/atypical cystic fibrosis

Question
Dear expert team,

our daughter was diagnosed with the R553x/IVS8-5T-TG12 mutations. QUESTION: Is there a difference between atypical and mild cystic fibrosis?

Many thanks.

Hello,

there is no uniform definition for the use of "mild" or "atypical" CF; the two terms are used according to general linguistic usage and can not be interpreted in any other particular way.
