BRONCHIECTASIS


Bronciectasis (Greek word)
•Bronkos ---- Wind pipe
•Ektesis ---- Stretching
HOW DO YOU DEFINE BRONCHIECTASIS ?
BRONCHIECTASIS
Abnormal and permanent
dilatation of bronchi and
bronchioles greater than 2 mm

REID’S CLASSIFICATION (1950)

Case Study

While doing clinical elective in UK,
you happen to see a young man,
who has been regularly visiting chest
clinic since birth with multiple
admissions. He c/o productive cough
and shortness of breath. His brother
also suffers from the same disease.
His chest x-ray is

What is the diagnosis ?
Kartageyner Syndrome

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD)
or Kartagener Syndrome (KS), is a
rare, ciliopathic, autosomal recessive gene
tic disorder that causes a defect in the
action of the cilia lining the respiratory
tract (lower and pper, sinuses, Eustachian
tube,middle ear) and fallopian tube.
Kartageyner Syndrome


It is combination of Ciliary
Dyskinesia and situs inversus
(complete or incomplete)
Infertility

of Bronchiectasis ?
