Bronchiectasis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) share many pathophysiological, clinical and spirometric characteristics. Along with the increasing and widespread use of high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scanning, bronchiectasis has become more detectable in patients presenting with chronic cough and shortness of breath. Identification of different phenotypes of COPD is ...

BACKGROUND Bronchiectasis revealed by chest computed tomography in COPD patients and its comorbid effect on prognosis have not been addressed by large-sized studies. Understanding the presence of bronchiectasis in COPD is important for future intervention and preventing disease progression. METHODS Observational studies were identified from electronic literature searches in Cochrane library, ...

PURPOSE Bronchiectasis is the main cause of hemoptysis. When patients with bronchiectasis develop hemoptysis, clinicians often perform bronchoscopy and bronchial washing to obtain samples for microbiological and cytological examinations. Bronchial washing fluids were analyzed from patients with bronchiectasis who developed hemoptysis, and the clinical impacts of these analyses were examined. ...

Introduction. We report a case of a patient with acute myeloid leukaemia whose treatment with bone marrow transplantation (BMT) was followed by chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD) with lung involvement and bronchiectasis. This report illustrates an unusual course of a fast progression of the bronchiectasis due to BMT. Case description. A 33-year-old female was diagnosed with acute myeloid ...

BACKGROUND Bronchiectasis is a condition that is characterized by the permanent dilation of bronchi with destruction of elastic and muscular components of their walls, usually due to acute or chronic infection. The cardinal symptom is a chronic productive cough. METHODS Review of articles cited in the systematic literature search, along with others found in Ovid MEDLINE and the Cochrane Libra...

Endothelin (ET)-1 has been suggested to promote neutrophil adhesion to endothelium, migration to inflamed areas, and release of elastase. ET-1 might therefore play a role in the pathogenesis of bronchiectasis, a chronic inflammatory and infective airway disease which is still poorly understood. Thirty five patients with stable bronchiectasis (20 females, mean age+/-SD 49.1+/-15.0 yrs) and 18 co...

OBJECTIVE To present a case in which diffuse cystic bronchiectasis was associated with left microtia/external auditory canal atresia. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 10-year-old girl suffering from cough, fever, dyspnea and sputum for 6 months was transferred to our clinic due to the diagnosis of bronchopneumonia. She had recurrent episodes of bronchopneumonia. On examination, left microtia and left ...

Adhesion molecules are expressed on the surface of endothelial cells and leukocytes and are responsible for mediating the migration of intravascular leukocytes into inflamed tissue. Intensive recruitment of neutrophils into the airways occurs in bronchiectasis, although little is known about the role of adhesion molecules in this process. The authors, therefore, determined serum levels of E-sel...

The results of bronchography in 96 consecutive patients investigated for haemoptysis at Papworth Hospital from 1975 to 1983 were reviewed. None of the patients included in this study gave a history suggestive of bronchiectasis and neither chest radiography nor fibreoptic bronchoscopy had shown a cause for the bleeding. Bronchography was performed through the fibreoptic bronchoscope and all incl...

BACKGROUND There are few published data on the correlation between the clinical findings in subjects with chronic sputum production and the appearances on high resolution computed tomographic (HRCT) scans of the chest. METHODS HRCT scanning of the chest was performed on 40 subjects with chronic sputum production. Three readers independently reported the scans for the presence or absence of br...
