Primary and Secundary Ciliary Dyskinesia
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1983It has recently been shown that patients with Kartagener's triad and also some subjects with similar symptoms, but without situs inversus, have a congenital abnormality of cilia as an explanation for their chronic airway symptoms; this disease has been named "the immotile-cilia syndrome" or more correctly "primary ciliary dyskinesia".

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an inherited disorder characterized by impaired ciliary function that leads to an array of clinical manifestations including chronic bronchitis, chronic sinusitis, chronic otitis media, situs inversus (in approximately 50% of cases), and infertility. The underlying genetic and molecular defects have not been defined.

Primary ciliary dyskinesia in adults
Revue des Maladies Respiratoires, 2016Primary ciliary dyskinesia is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder leading to structural and/or functional abnormalities of motor cilia. Impaired mucociliary clearance is responsible for the development of a multi-organ disease, which particularly affects the upper and lower airways.In adults, primary ciliary dyskinesia is mainly characterized by ...

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD)
Pediatric Pulmonology, 2000This article summarizes the current state of the scientific and clinical knowledge that relates to primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Although PCD is a rare disease with a prevalence of 1 in 20,000 it has a well recognized morbidity. It is believed that an accurate diagnosis and the application of appropriate management can significantly reduce this ...

Intraoperative diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia☆☆☆
Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1995Primary ciliary dyskinesia refers to clinical disease attributable to congenitally abnormal or absent ciliary motility. Diagnosis typically requires electron microscopy to document aberrant axoneme ultrastructure. Electron microscopy, however, remains inaccurate and inconvenient as a screening test for symptomatic individuals.

Understanding primary ciliary dyskinesia
Pediatric PulmonologyAbstractPrimary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, inherited disease characterized by impaired motile ciliary function leading to chronic sinopulmonary disease, persistent middle ear effusions, laterality defects, and subfertility. Over fifty PCD‐associated genes have also been identified, which have provided new insights into the processes involved ...

Primary ciliary dyskinesia in pigs.
Journal of submicroscopic cytology and pathology, 1991The first description of a familial immotile cilia syndrome diagnosed through ovario-hysterectomy in six siblings of pigs has been performed. This report may indicate another possible cause of reproductive failure in domestic animals. In fact, the immotile cilia syndrome has not been considered from this point of view in veterinary medicine.
