Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 2001
Bronchiectasis is a structural derangement of the bronchial wall that is characterized by airway dilatation and bronchial wall thickening. As a result of this abnormality, chronic inflammation and secondary microbial infections occur, which cause additional damage to the bronchi.

Bronchiectasis is one of the diagnostic entities in the spectrum of pediatric chronic wet cough, causing significant morbidity and mortality. The pathobiology involves a vicious cycle of repeated infections, airway inflammation, dysregulated immunity, and tissue remodeling, resulting in impaired airway clearance, destruction of structural elements ...

Bronchiectasis, or the irreversible dilatation of bronchi, can present with a host of nonspecific clinical symptoms, including hemoptysis, cough, and hypoxia. The radiologist, then, can play an important role in its detection and characterization. Bronchiectasis must be differentiated from motion artifact and transient bronchial dilatation in acute ...

Bronchiectasis, which was once thought to be an orphan disease, is now being recognized with increasing frequency around the world. Patients with bronchiectasis have chronic cough and sputum production, and bacterial infections develop in them that result in the loss of lung function.

AbstractBronchiectasis is generally classified into cystic fibrosis and non‐cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. This review article describes non‐cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis in adults. Bronchiectasis can be considered a heterogeneous condition characterized by irreversible airway dilatation with chronic bronchial infection/inflammation.

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1998
Imaging has a key role in the identification of bronchiectasis. Over the years, imaging tests have become increasingly accurate in depicting the features of early bronchiectasis. This article covers the clinical, pathologic, and functional features of bronchiectasis; high-resolution CT scan technique; the signs of bronchiectasis on chest radiography ...

The Patient with Bronchiectasis
The American Journal of Nursing, 1955B RONCHIECTASIS still remains a serious problem despite the successful use of antibiotics in controlling pulmonary infection. Many patients with moderate or minimal bronchiectasis are now kept on a medical regimen which allows them to carry on normal activity.

Bronchiectasis is a chronic suppurative respiratory disease of declining prevalence but continuing morbidity due to recurrent respiratory infections and bronchial bleeding. Literature was reviewed through a Medline search for the past 4 years. Almost all reports are retrospective case summaries. This review focuses on the clinical assessment, stressing

Pseudodextrocardia in bronchiectasis
Hospital Medicine, 2002Bronchiectasis is a chronic inflammatory pulmonary disorder characterized by chronic productive cough, recurrent bronchial sepsis and haemoptysis, with airflow obstruction and progressive tissue destruction. Kartagener's syndrome, associated with dysfunctional cilia, sinusitis and situs inversus, is a rare cause of bronchiectasis (Marwah and Sharman ...
