This young man has long history of productive cough and wheezing. He is afebrile and chest auscultation reveals coarse crackles at right lower chest BRONCHIECTASIS Bronciectasis (Greek word) •Bronkos ---- Wind pipe •Ektesis ---- Stretching HOW DO YOU DEFINE BRONCHIECTASIS ?

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 ? What is mode of inheritance ?

What is pathology Case Study 30 Years old gentleman comes to you with chronic sinusitis and productive cough. His x-ray of sinuses and chest are 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 What are the congenital causes of Bronchiectasis ?
