Primary and Secundary Ciliary Dyskinesia

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1983
It 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: A Review

Ultrastructural Pathology, 2005
The entity sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and situs inversus is since long named Kartagener syndrome. Nowadays the designation used is primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), which implies cilia with decreased or total absence of motility, which may result in sinusitis, chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis, and male infertility.

Primary ciliary dyskinesia. Ciliopathies

Acta Otorrinolaringologica (English Edition), 2010
Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a genetically inherited syndrome characterized by cilia immotility or dysmotility. Deficiency in mucociliary clearance produces chronic respiratory infections since birth, male sterility by spermatozoid immotility and situs inversus in 40-50% of patients (Kartagener's syndrome).

Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2003
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 (PCD)

Pediatric Pulmonology, 2000
This 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 ...

Primary ciliary dyskinesia in adults

Revue des Maladies Respiratoires, 2016
Primary 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 ...

Intraoperative diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia☆☆☆

Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1995
Primary 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 Pulmonology
AbstractPrimary 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 ...
