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 is characterized by irreversible dilatation of the airways. Associated with a variety of underlying disorders, the common pathway for the development of bronchiectasis is chronic or recurrent infection. Bronchiectasis can occur in the normal host after a bout of severe infection or bronchial obstruction.

BMJ, 2010
Bronchiectatic lung contains permanently dilated subsegmental airways that are inflamed, tortuous, and often partially or totally obstructed with secretions. It arises as a result of the combination of an infectious insult with associated impaired clearance mechanisms: local obstruction and infection distal to the obstruction are both required.

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

Bronchiectasis is a common chronic lung disease that is prevalent in the Australian community and is a significant disease burden in the Australian Aboriginal community. It significantly affects quality of life and increases healthcare costs; however, it is poorly reported and documented.The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive summary of ...

Bronchiectasis is an important clinical syndrome because of its increasing prevalence, substantial economic burden on health care, and associated morbidity. Until recently, the disease was considered an orphan and essentially neglected from a therapeutic standpoint, but many recent advances have been made in the field.

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.

The Patient with Bronchiectasis [PDF]
The American Journal of Nursing, 1955 B 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.

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.
