Park HJ, Kim YH, Yoon YJ, Cho SY. Regional anesthesia in a patient with primary ciliary dyskinesia: A case report. World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:3183-3187. [PMID: 38898834 PMCID: PMC11185374 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v12.i17.3183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an inherited autosomal-recessive disorder of impaired mucociliary clearance characterized by chronic respiratory diseases, otolaryngological diseases, central nervous system abnormalities, reproductive system abnormalities, and cardiac function abnormalities. General anesthesia in these patients is associated with a higher incidence of respiratory complications than in patients without the disease. CASE SUMMARY A 16-year-old male patient was referred to the emergency room complaining of right ankle pain due to distal tibiofibular fracture. Three years prior, he had been diagnosed with PCD. At that time, he had experienced several episodes of pneumonia, sinusitis, and chronic middle ear infections, for which he underwent surgical interventions. At the current admission, he presented with cough and sputum but no other respiratory symptoms. A chest computed tomography scan revealed centrilobular ground-glass opacities in both lower lobes and a calcified nodule in the left lower lobe. For the surgical procedure and postoperative pain management, combined spinal-epidural anesthesia was employed. The patient's postoperative pain score was measured by the numerical rating scale (NRS). On the day of surgery, his NRS was 5 points. By the second postoperative day, the NRS score had decreased to 2-3 points. The epidural catheter was removed on the fourth day following the operation. The patient was subsequently discharged no respiratory complications. CONCLUSION We performed combined spinal-epidural anesthesia in a patient with PCD. The patient experienced no additional respiratory complications and was discharged with a low NRS score for pain.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare, genetically heterogeneous, motile ciliopathy, characterized by neonatal respiratory distress, recurrent upper and lower respiratory tract infections, subfertility, and laterality defects. Diagnosis relies on a combination of tests for confirmation, including nasal nitric oxide (nNO) measurements, high-speed videomicroscopy analysis (HSVMA), immunofluorescent staining, axonemal ultrastructure analysis via transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and genetic testing. Notably, there is no single gold standard confirmatory or exclusionary test. Currently, 54 causative genes involved in cilia assembly, structure, and function have been linked to PCD; this rare disease has a spectrum of clinical manifestations and emerging genotype-phenotype relationships. In this review, we provide an overview of the structure and function of motile cilia, the emerging genetics and pathophysiology of this rare disease, as well as clinical features associated with motile ciliopathies, novel diagnostic tools, and updates on genotype-phenotype relationships in PCD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a relatively rare genetic disorder that affects approximately 1 in 20,000 people. Approximately 50 genes are currently known to cause PCD. In light of differences in causative genes and the medical system in Japan compared with other countries, a practical guide was needed for the diagnosis and management of Japanese PCD patients. METHODS An ad hoc academic committee was organized under the Japanese Rhinologic Society to produce a practical guide, with participation by committee members from several academic societies in Japan. The practical guide including diagnostic criteria for PCD was approved by the Japanese Rhinologic Society, Japanese Society of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Japanese Respiratory Society, and Japanese Society of Pediatric Pulmonology. RESULTS The diagnostic criteria for PCD consist of six clinical features, six laboratory findings, differential diagnosis, and genetic testing. The diagnosis of PCD is categorized as definite, probable, or possible PCD based on a combination of the four items above. Diagnosis of definite PCD requires exclusion of cystic fibrosis and primary immunodeficiency, at least one of the six clinical features, and a positive result for at least one of the following: (1) Class 1 defect on electron microscopy of cilia, (2) pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in a PCD-related gene, or (3) impairment of ciliary motility that can be repaired by correcting the causative gene variants in iPS cells established from the patient's peripheral blood cells. CONCLUSION This practical guide provides clinicians with useful information for the diagnosis and management of PCD in Japan.

Abstract
Introduction: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare heterogeneous disease caused by abnormalities in motile cilia. In this case report, we first analyzed the clinical and genetic data of a proband who was suspected of having PCD on the basis of her clinical and radiological findings. Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was performed, and a variant in the RSPH4A gene was identified in the proband. Sanger sequencing was used for validation of RSPH4A variants in the proband, her sister, her daughter and her parents. Finally, the phenotypic features of the patient were analyzed, and the current literature was reviewed to better understand the gene variants in PCD related to hearing loss and the clinical manifestations of the RSPH4A variant in PCD. Results: The chief clinical symptoms of this proband included gradual mixed hearing loss, otitis media, anosmia, sinusitis, recurrent cough and infertility. Her DNA sequencing revealed a novel homozygous T to C transition at position 1321 within exon 3 of RSPH4A according to genetic testing results. This variant had never been reported before. The homozygous variant resulted in an amino acid substitution of tryptophan by arginine at position 441 (p.Trp441Arg). The same variant was also found in the proband's sister, and a heterozygous pathogenic variant was identified among immediate family members, including the proband's daughter and parents. Discussion: A literature review showed that 16 pathogenic variants in RSPH4A have been reported. Hearing loss had only been observed in patients with the RSPH4A (c.921+3_6delAAGT) splice site mutation, and the specific type of hearing loss was not described.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by impaired motile cilia function, particularly in the upper and lower airways. To date, more than 50 causative genes related to the movement, development, and maintenance of cilia have been identified. PCD mostly follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern, in which PCD symptoms manifest only in the presence of pathogenic variants in both alleles. Several genes causing PCD have been recently identified that neither lead to situs inversus nor cause definitive abnormalities in ciliary ultrastructure. Importantly, the distribution of disease-causing genes and pathogenic variants varies depending on ethnicity. In Japan, homozygosity for a ∼27.7-kb deletion of DRC1 is estimated to be the most common cause of PCD, presumably as a founder mutation. The clinical picture of PCD is similar to that of sinobronchial syndrome, thus making its differentiation from diffuse panbronchiolitis and other related disorders difficult. Given the diagnostic challenges, many cases remain undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, particularly in adults. While no fundamental cure is currently available, lifelong medical subsidies are provided in Japan, and proper respiratory management, along with continued prevention and treatment of infections, is believed to mitigate the decline in respiratory function. Timely action will be necessary when specific treatments for PCD become available in the future. This narrative review focuses on variations in the disease status of PCD in a non-Western country.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD, ORPHA:244) is a group of rare genetic disorders characterized by dysfunction of motile cilia. It is phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous, with more than 50 genes involved. Thanks to genetic, clinical, and functional characterization, immense progress has been made in the understanding and diagnosis of PCD. Nevertheless, it is underdiagnosed due to the heterogeneous phenotype and complexity of diagnosis. This review aims to help clinicians navigate this heterogeneous group of diseases. Here, we describe the broad spectrum of phenotypes associated with PCD and address pitfalls and difficult-to-interpret findings to avoid misinterpretation. METHOD Review of literature CONCLUSION: PCD diagnosis is complex and requires integration of history, clinical picture, imaging, functional and structural analysis of motile cilia and, if available, genetic analysis to make a definitive diagnosis. It is critical that we continue to expand our knowledge of this group of rare disorders to improve the identification of PCD patients and to develop evidence-based therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a hereditary disease caused by pathogenic variants in genes associated with motile cilia. Some variants responsible for PCD are reported to be ethnic-specific or geographical-specific. To identify the responsible PCD variants of Japanese PCD patients, we performed next-generation sequencing of a panel of 32 PCD genes or whole-exome sequencing in 26 newly identified Japanese PCD families. We then combined their genetic data with those from 40 Japanese PCD families reported previously, for an overall analysis of 66 unrelated Japanese PCD families. We conducted Genome Aggregation Database and TogoVar database analyses to reveal the PCD genetic spectrum of the Japanese population and compare with other ethnic groups worldwide. We identified 22 unreported variants among the 31 patients in the 26 newly identified PCD families, including 17 deleterious variants estimated to cause lack of transcription or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and 5 missense mutations. In all 76 PCD patients from the 66 Japanese families, we identified 53 variants on 141 alleles in total. Copy number variation in DRC1 is the most frequent variant in Japanese PCD patients, followed by DNAH5 c.9018C>T. We found 30 variants specific to the Japanese population, of which 22 are novel. Furthermore, 11 responsible variants in the Japanese PCD patients are common in East Asian populations, while some variants are more frequent in other ethnic groups. In conclusion, PCD is genetically heterogeneous between different ethnicities, and Japanese PCD patients have a characteristic genetic spectrum.

Abstract
A 70-year-old man began to cough. Chest X-ray showed a tumor in the center, pleural effusion on the left side, and diffuse granular shadows on the right side. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed bronchial wall thickening and numerous granular shadows. We suspected diffuse panbronchiolitis. Thus, transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) and transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) were performed. The tissue size obtained was 1 mm by TBLB and 6 mm at 5 seconds by TBLC. Histological analysis of the TBLB specimen showed lymphocyte infiltration, no fibrosis in Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and no elastic fibers in Elastica van Gieson (EVG) staining. On the other hand, TBLC specimens showed inflammatory cell infiltration and fibrosis around the bronchioles in HE staining and hypertrophy of elastic fibers in EVG staining. It was diagnosed as diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB) from clinical and pathological findings. Cryobiopsy is useful in diagnosing DPB as well as interstitial pneumonia and lung cancer.

Pediatr Pulmonol 2023; 58:475-483. [PMID: 36268989 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.26213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2022] [Revised: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 10/15/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia is a rare genetic disorder characterized by recurrent sinopulmonary infections and worsening obstructive lung disease. Kidney and brain involvement is less common and is associated with overlapping ciliopathies/syndromes. The lungs are impacted early in the course of the disease, so it is vital to monitor lung function and recognize any decline by doing appropriate lung function tests. This systematic review compares different lung function tests and analyzes which one becomes abnormal earlier in the disease. METHODS A systematic review was conducted following the methodology in the "Cochrane Handbook on Systematic Reviews for diagnostic tests." The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses were used to report the results. The risk of bias assessment was done using "The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews tool for interventional studies." A meta-analysis was not performed due to the small sample size. All studies were analyzed by using Joanna Briggs Institute's critical appraisal tool. RESULTS After screening for the duplication of results and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 14 studies were assessed by reading the full texts. Out of these, eight were finally included in this systematic review. The total sample size from all studies was 165, including 80 males. All the studies used spirometry as a lung function test, whereas multiple breath washout was used in five studies. Other tests used for comparison were computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cardiopulmonary exercise testing, 6-min walk test, DLCO, maximal inspiratory pressure, maximal expiratory pressure, and PaO2 . Lung clearance index (LCI) by multiple breath washout had a stronger association with the structural changes on CT/MRI than spirometry indices like forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced expiratory flow at 25% to 75% of lung volume (FEF 25-75). CONCLUSIONS Based on the evidence from this systematic review, LCI becomes abnormal earlier than FEV1 or FEF 25-75 and positively correlates with the findings on high-resolution CT. It has limitations like the lack of reference values and a complex technique to perform the test.

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetic and congenital disease associated with an abnormal ciliary ultrastructure and function and is estimated to affect 1 in 15,000-20,000 individuals. A PCD diagnosis can be achieved by genotyping. Here, we performed whole-exome analysis for the diagnosis of PCD and described the detailed clinical characteristics of the case. A 39-year-old Japanese woman with sinusitis and bronchiectasis without situs inversus had had upper and lower respiratory symptoms since childhood and had received long-term macrolide therapy without an accurate diagnosis. A moderate deterioration of cilia function was observed by high-speed video microscopy analysis; additionally, the number of cells with moving cilia was fewer than that in patients without PCD. Electron microscopy revealed no apparent structural abnormalities. We performed whole-exome analysis and identified novel biallelic variants of SPEF2 in the homozygous state (c.1860_1861insCT). We confirmed the absence of SPEF2 protein expression in the cilia of the nasal mucosa using fluorescent immunostaining. Accordingly, she was diagnosed as having PCD with the SPEF2 variant. The present case suggests that the deterioration of cilia function is moderate, the number of respiratory cells with moving cilia might be reduced, and the respiratory condition could be severe in patients with PCD with the SPEF2 variant.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterised by motor ciliary dysfunction. The main manifestations are bronchiectasis, chronic sinusitis and situs inversus (viscera translocation triad). Additionally, it can present as male infertility and female ectopic pregnancy. However, there is currently no recognised diagnostic standard for PCD, which brings great challenges to its diagnosis and treatment. In addition to clinical data, the current diagnostic methods of PCD mainly include PICADAR, nasal exhaled nitric oxide, transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution immunofluorescence, high-speed video microscopy analysis and gene detection. This article makes a comprehensive comparison of the above diagnostic methods and suggests that genetic detection technology will become the general trend of PCD diagnosis.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) can be defined as a multiorgan ciliopathy with a dominant element of chronic airway disease affecting the nose, sinuses, middle ear, and in particular, the lower airways. Although most patients with PCD are diagnosed during preschool years, it is obvious that the chronic lung disease starts its course already from birth. The many faces of the clinical picture change, as does lung function, structural lung damage, the burden of infection, and of treatment throughout life. A markedly severe neutrophil inflammation in the respiratory tract seems pervasive and is only to a minimal extent ameliorated by a treatment strategy, which is predominantly aimed at bacterial infections. An ever‐increasing understanding of the different aspects, their interrelationships, and possible different age courses conditioned by the underlying genotype is the focus of much attention. The future is likely to offer personalized medicine in the form of mRNA therapy, but to that end, it is of utmost importance that all patients with PCD be carefully characterized and given a genetic diagnosis. In this narrative review, we have concentrated on lower airways and summarized the current understanding of the chronic airway disease in this motile ciliopathy. In addition, we highlight the challenges, gaps, and opportunities in PCD lung disease research.

Abstract
Bronchiectasis is a radiological diagnosis made using computed tomographic (CT) imaging. Although visual CT assessment is necessary for the diagnosis of bronchiectasis, visual assessment of disease severity and progression is challenging. Computer tools offer the potential to improve the characterization of lung damage in patients with bronchiectasis. Newer imaging techniques such as MRI with hyperpolarized gas inhalation have the potential to identify early forms of disease and are without the constraints of requiring ionizing radiation exposure.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare hereditary disease. We herein report two sisters in their 20s with suspected PCD. They were both born at full term and did not have situs inversus. Chest computed tomography showed similar signs of bronchiectasis in both siblings. Genetic examinations of the family confirmed that the sisters both harbored a homozygous variant in the growth-arrest-specific 2-like 2 (GAS2L2) gene. This is the third report of a family with PCD caused by a GAS2L2 variant.

Abstract
Kartagener's syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the situs inversus, bronchiectasis, and chronic sinusitis. It is found in about half of the individuals with primary ciliary dyskinesia, a disorder of dynein arms in the cilia which renders the mucociliary apparatus inefficient. One of the manifestations of this disorder is the inability to clear secretions from the respiratory pathway leading to recurrent infections and their complications. We present a case of a 16-year-old female with the classical triad of Kartagener's syndrome who developed left-sided empyema thoracis and needed video-assisted thoracoscopic decortication for her condition.

Abstract
Objectives Disease-specific, well-defined and validated clinical outcome measures are essential in designing research studies. Poorly defined outcome measures hamper pooling of data and comparisons between studies. We aimed to identify and describe pulmonary outcome measures that could be used for follow-up of patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Methods We conducted a scoping review by systematically searching MEDLINE, Embase and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews online databases for studies published from 1996 to 2020 that included ≥10 PCD adult and/or paediatric patients. Results We included 102 studies (7289 patients). 83 studies reported on spirometry, 11 on body plethysmography, 15 on multiple-breath washout, 36 on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), 57 on microbiology and 17 on health-related quality of life. Measurement and reporting of outcomes varied considerably between studies (e.g. different scoring systems for chest HRCT scans). Additionally, definitions of outcome measures varied (e.g. definition of chronic colonisation by respiratory pathogen), impeding direct comparisons of results. Conclusions This review highlights the need for standardisation of measurements and reporting of outcome measures to enable comparisons between studies. Defining a core set of clinical outcome measures is necessary to ensure reproducibility of results and for use in future trials and prospective cohorts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a ciliopathy with diverse clinical and genetic findings caused by abnormal motile cilia structure and function. In this study, we describe the clinical characteristics of confirmed PCD cases in our population and report the radiological, genetic, and laboratory findings. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational, single-centre study. We enrolled 18 patients who were diagnosed with confirmed PCD between 2015 and 2019. We then analyzed their data, including clinical findings and workup. RESULTS In our cohort, 56% of patients had molecularly confirmed PCD, and RSPH9 was the most common gene identified. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) showed an ultrastructural defect in 64% of samples, all of which matched the genetic background of the patient. Situs inversus (SI) was observed in 50% of patients, and congenital heart disease was observed in 33%. The median body mass index (BMI) was 15.87 kg/m2, with a median z score of -1.48. The median FEV1 value was 67.6% (z score - 2.43). Radiologically, bronchiectasis was noted in 81% of patients at a variable degree of severity. Lung bases were involved in 91% of patients. We were unable to correlate the genotype-phenotype findings. CONCLUSION We describe the clinical and molecular characteristics of patients with confirmed PCD in a tertiary centre in Saudi Arabia and report 9 new pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in one of the PCD-associated genes.

Abstract
Congenital lung diseases in adults are rare diseases that can present with symptoms or be detected incidentally. Familiarity with the imaging features of different types of congenital lung diseases helps both in correct diagnosis and management of these diseases. Congenital lung diseases in adults are classified into three main categories as bronchopulmonary anomalies, vascular anomalies, and combined bronchopulmonary and vascular anomalies. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography, especially 3D reconstructions, CT, or MR angiography, can show vascular anomalies in detail. The tracheobronchial tree, parenchymal changes, and possible complications can also be defined on chest CT, and new applications such as quantitative 3D reconstruction CT images, dual-energy CT (DECT) can be helpful in imaging parenchymal changes. In addition to the morphological assessment of the lungs, novel MRI techniques such as ultra-short echo time (UTE), arterial spin labeling (ASL), and phase-resolved functional lung (PREFUL) can provide functional information. This pictorial review aims to comprehensively define the radiological characteristics of each congenital lung disease in adults and to highlight differential diagnoses and possible complications of these diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder which requires a complex diagnostic workup. Thus, an easy and widely available screening method would be helpful to identify patients who need a further diagnostic workup for PCD. OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to develop and validate a computed tomography (CT) score for PCD to facilitate etiological diagnosis in adults with bronchiectasis. METHOD Chest CTs from 121 adults with bronchiectasis were scored for bronchiectasis morphology, distribution, and associated findings. Patients with and without the etiological diagnosis of PCD (46 and 75, respectively) were compared. Significantly, different imaging findings (p < 0.05) in univariate analysis were considered for multivariate analysis. Distinct findings were used to build the score. Based on this score, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed. The score was validated with 2 independent cohorts, another cohort from the same institution with 56 patients (28 with PCD) and an external cohort from another referral center with 172 patients (86 with PCD). RESULTS The following parameters predicted PCD in adults with bronchiectasis and were included in the score with weighting according to their regression coefficients: 2 points were given for predominance in the middle/lower lobe, 2 points for tree-in-bud pattern, 2 points for atelectasis or prior resection of a middle/lower lobe, and 3 points for absence of emphysema and fibrosis. Situs inversus was only observed in subjects with PCD (Kartagener syndrome) and, thus, was not used in the primary ciliary dyskinesia computed tomography (PCD-CT) score as group comparisons could not be performed. ROC curve analysis revealed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.90 (95% CI 0.85-0.96). Youden index was the highest at a threshold of >6 with a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 83%. In the validation cohorts, ROC curve analysis confirmed the performance of the score with an AUC of 0.83 (95% CI 0.72-0.94) in the first validation cohort and 0.79 (95% CI 0.73-0.86) in the external validation cohort. CONCLUSIONS The PCD-CT score provides the first validated CT score for PCD and helps physicians in identifying adult bronchiectasis patients who require further diagnostic workup. Key message: The PCD-CT score provides the first validated CT score to assist physicians in identifying adult bronchiectasis patients who require a further diagnostic workup for PCD. It potentially improves earlier recognition of this rare and underdiagnosed disease.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is inherited in a predominantly autosomal recessive manner with over 45 currently identified causative genes. It is a clinically heterogeneous disorder that results in a chronic wet cough and drainage from the paranasal sinuses, chronic otitis media with hearing impairment as well as male infertility. Approximately 50% of patients have situs inversus totalis. Prior to the development of chronic oto-sino-pulmonary symptoms, neonatal respiratory distress occurs in more than 80% of patients as a result of impaired mucociliary clearance and mucus impaction causing atelectasis and lobar collapse. Diagnosis is often delayed due to overlapping symptoms with other causes of neonatal respiratory distress. A work up for PCD should be initiated in the newborn with compatible clinical features, especially those with respiratory distress, consistent radiographic findings or persistent oxygen requirement and/or organ laterality defects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To report detailed knowledge about the clinical manifestations, ciliary phenotypes, genetic spectrum as well as phenotype/genotype correlation in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) in Chinese children. STUDY DESIGN We recruited 50 Chinese children with PCD. Extensive clinical assessments, nasal nitric oxide, high-speed video analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and genetic testing were performed to characterize the phenotypes and genotypes of these patients. RESULTS Common clinical features included chronic wet cough (85.4%), laterality defects (70.0%), and neonatal respiratory distress (55.8%). A high prevalence of congenital abnormalities (30.2%, 13/43), observed in patients who underwent comprehensive examination for comorbidities, included thoracic deformity (11.6%, 5/43), congenital heart disease (9.3%, 4/43), and sensorineural deafness (2.3%, 1/43). For 24 children age >6 years, the mean predicted values of forced expiratory volume in 1 second were 87.2%. Bronchiectasis evident on high-resolution computed tomography was reported in 38.1% of patients (16/42). Biallelic mutations (81 total; 57 novel) were identified in 13 genes: DNAAF3, DNAAF1, DNAH5, DNAH11, CCDC39, CCDC40, CCDC114, CCDC103, HYDIN, CCNO, DNAI1, OFD1, and SPAG1. Overall, ciliary ultrastructural and beat pattern correlated well with the genotype. However, variable phenotypes were also observed in CCDC39 and DNAH5 mutant cilia. CONCLUSIONS This large PCD cohort in China broadens the clinical, ciliary phenotypes, and genetic characteristics of children with PCD. Our findings are roughly consistent with previous studies besides some peculiarities such as high prevalence of associated abnormalities.

Abstract
Die Primäre Ciliäre Dyskinesie (PCD, MIM 242650) ist eine seltene hereditäre Multisystemerkrankung mit klinisch heterogenem Phänotyp. Leitsymptom ist eine chronische Sekretretention der oberen und unteren Atemwege, welche durch die Dysfunktion motiler respiratorischer Zilien entsteht. In der Folge kommt es zur Ausbildung von Bronchiektasen, häufig zu einer Infektion durch Pseudomonas aeruginosa sowie einer abnehmenden Lungenfunktion bis hin zum Lungenversagen. Bislang gibt es kaum evidenzbasierte Therapieempfehlungen, da randomisierte Langzeitstudien zur Behandlung der PCD fehlten. In diesem Jahr wurden die Daten einer ersten placebokontrollierten Medikamentenstudie bei PCD veröffentlicht. Anlässlich dieses Meilensteins im Management der PCD wurde der vorliegende Übersichtsartikel als Konsens von Patientenvertretern sowie Klinikern, die langjährige Erfahrung in der Behandlung der PCD haben, verfasst. Diese Arbeit bietet eine Zusammenfassung aktuell eingesetzter Behandlungsverfahren, die überwiegend auf persönlichen Erfahrungen und Expertenmeinungen beruhen oder von anderen Atemwegserkrankungen wie der Cystischen Fibrose (CF), COPD oder Bronchiektasen-Erkrankung abgeleitet werden. Da es derzeit keine kurative Therapie für PCD gibt, stehen symptomatische Maßnahmen wie die regelmäßige Reinigung der Atemwege und die Behandlung von rezidivierenden Atemwegsinfektionen im Fokus. Nicht respiratorische Manifestationen werden organspezifisch behandelt. Um neben der ersten Medikamentenstudie mehr evidenzbasiertes Wissen zu generieren, werden weitere Projekte etabliert, u. a. ein internationales PCD-Register. Hierüber wird Patienten der Zugang zu klinischen und wissenschaftlichen Studien erleichtert und die Vernetzung behandelnder Zentren gefördert. Des Weiteren können Erkenntnisse über eine Genotyp-spezifische Erkrankungsschwere erlangt werden, um folglich die therapeutische Versorgung der Patienten zu verbessern und somit zu individualisieren.

Abstract
Chest computed tomography (CT) is the gold standard for detecting structural abnormalities in patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) such as bronchiectasis, bronchial wall thickening and mucus plugging. There are no studies on quantitative assessment of airway and artery abnormalities in children with PCD. The objectives of the present study were to quantify airway and artery dimensions on chest CT in a cohort of children with PCD and compare these with control children to analyse the influence of covariates on airway and artery dimensions. Chest CTs of 13 children with PCD (14 CT scans) and 12 control children were collected retrospectively. The bronchial tree was segmented semi-automatically and reconstructed in a three-dimensional view. All visible airway–artery (AA) pairs were measured perpendicular to the airway centre line, annotating per branch inner and outer airway and adjacent artery diameter and computing inner airway diameter/artery ratio (AinA ratio), outer airway diameter/artery ratio (AoutA ratio), wall thickness (WT), WT/outer airway diameter ratio (Awt ratio) and WT/artery ratio. In the children with PCD (38.5% male, mean age 13.5 years, range 9.8–15.3) 1526 AA pairs were measured versus 1516 in controls (58.3% male, mean age 13.5 years, range 8–14.8). AinA ratio and AoutA ratio were significantly higher in children with PCD than in control children (both p<0.001). Awt ratio was significantly higher in control children than in children with PCD (p<0.001). Our study showed that in children with PCD airways are more dilated than in controls and do not show airway wall thickening. Chest CT is the gold standard for detecting structural abnormalities in patients with PCD, and this study is the first on quantitative assessment of airway and artery abnormalities in children with PCDhttps://bit.ly/2XZYWjU

Abstract
Motile cilia are highly complex hair-like organelles of epithelial cells lining the surface of various organ systems. Genetic mutations (usually with autosomal recessive inheritance) that impair ciliary beating cause a variety of motile ciliopathies, a heterogeneous group of rare disorders. The pathogenetic mechanisms, clinical symptoms and severity of the disease depend on the specific affected genes and the tissues in which they are expressed. Defects in the ependymal cilia can result in hydrocephalus, defects in the cilia in the fallopian tubes or in sperm flagella can cause female and male subfertility, respectively, and malfunctional motile monocilia of the left-right organizer during early embryonic development can lead to laterality defects such as situs inversus and heterotaxy. If mucociliary clearance in the respiratory epithelium is severely impaired, the disorder is referred to as primary ciliary dyskinesia, the most common motile ciliopathy. No single test can confirm a diagnosis of motile ciliopathy, which is based on a combination of tests including nasal nitric oxide measurement, transmission electron microscopy, immunofluorescence and genetic analyses, and high-speed video microscopy. With the exception of azithromycin, there is no evidence-based treatment for primary ciliary dyskinesia; therapies aim at relieving symptoms and reducing the effects of reduced ciliary motility.

Abstract
Neonatal respiratory distress (NRD) is common among infants with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), but we do not know whether affected neonates receive a timely diagnosis. We used data from the international PCD cohort and assessed the proportion of patients with PCD who had a history of NRD and their age at diagnosis, stratifying by presence of laterality defects. First we analyzed data from all participants diagnosed after 2000, followed by individuals from a subgroup diagnosed using stricter criteria. Among the 1375 patients in the study, 45% had a history of NRD and 42% had laterality defects. Out of the 476 children with definite PCD diagnosis, 55% had a history of NRD and 50% had laterality defects. Overall, 30% of children with PCD were diagnosed during the first 12 months of life. This varied from 13% in those with situs solitus and no NRD, to 21% in those with situs solitus and NRD, 33% in those with situs anomalies but no NRD, and 52% in those with both situs anomalies and NRD. Our results suggest that we need to improve our knowledge of the neonatal presentation of infants with PCD and apply it so that these patients will receive appropriate care sooner.

J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9030810.

Abstract
Background: Due to the lack of a gold standard diagnostic test, reference centres with experienced personnel and costly procedures are needed for primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) diagnostics. Diagnostic flowcharts always start with clinical symptoms. Therefore, the aim of this work is to define differential clinical criteria so that only patients clinically compatible with PCD are referred to reference centres. Materials and methods: 18 variables from 476 Mediterranean patients with clinically suspicious PCD were collected. After analysing cilia function and ultrastructure, 89 individuals were diagnosed with PCD and 387 had a negative diagnosis. Simple logistic regression analysis, considering PCD as a dependent variable and the others as independent variables, was done. In order to define the variables that best explain PCD, a step-wise logistic regression model was defined. Aiming to classify individuals as PCD or PCD-like patients, based on variables included in the study, a classification and regression tree (CART) was designed. Results and conclusions: Simple logistic regression analysis shows statistically significant association between age at the beginning of their symptomatology, periodicity, fertility, situs inversus, recurrent otitis, atelectasis, bronchiectasis, chronic productive cough, rhinorrea, rhinusinusitis and recurrent pneumonias, and PCD. The step-wise logistic regression model selected situs inversus, atelectasis, rhinorrea, chronic productive cough, bronchiectasis, recurrent pneumonias, and otitis as PCD predictive variables (82% sensitivity, 88% specificity, and 0.92 Area Under the Curve (AUC)). A decision tree was designed in order to classify new individuals based on pansinusitis, situs inversus, periodicity, rhinorrea, bronchiectasis, and chronic wet cough.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB) is a sinopulmonary disease mainly affecting Asian populations. Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder impairing ciliary structure and function. These two disorders are not easily distinguished by clinical signs and symptoms. METHODS In 105 Japanese patients with recurrent sinopulmonary infection, initially diagnosed with DPB, and 37 patients with recurrent airway infection diagnosed in adulthood, the deletion allele of DRC1 or CCDC164, recently recognized as a pathogenic PCD gene variant, was searched using a multiplexed PCR-based method, and the deletion breakpoints and other variants around the gene were determined by Sanger sequencing and targeted resequencing. RESULTS A large homozygous deletion in DRC1 was identified in three of the 142 patients. Furthermore, heterozygous carriers of the deletion with the same breakpoint were found with the allele frequency of 0.002 in the healthy Japanese population, indicating that this loss-of-function variant may be acting as a common mutation causing PCD in Japanese. CONCLUSION PCD caused by the DRC1 defect is not readily identified by either high-speed video-microscopy or ciliary ultrastructure analysis, posing significant difficulties in reaching a correct diagnosis without the aid of genetic tests. Careful investigation of the causes of sinopulmonary diseases is warranted in Asian populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder. Although the genetic tests and new diagnostic algorithms have recently been recommended, clinical signs and electron microscope (EM) findings have historically been the mainstays of diagnosis in Asia. To characterize PCD previously reported in Japan, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A search using MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Japana Centra Revuo Medicina (in Japanese) databases was carried out to identify articles reporting PCD, Kartagener syndrome, or immotile cilia syndrome in Japanese patients and published between 1985 and 2015. RESULTS After excluding duplication from 334 reports, we extracted 316 patients according to the criteria. Diagnosis was most frequently made in adulthood (148 patients [46.8%] ≥ 18 years old, 24 patients [7.6%] < 1 year old, 68 patients [21.5%] 1-17 years old and 76 patients [24.1%] lacking information). Of the 230 patients (72.8%) who received EM examination, there were patients with inner dynein arm (IDA) defects (n = 55; 23.9%), outer dynein arm (ODA) defects (14; 6.1%), both ODA and IDA defects (57; 24.8%), other structural abnormalities (25; 10.9%), no abnormalities (4; 1.7%), and no detailed conclusion or description (75; 32.6%). CONCLUSION Delayed diagnosis of this congenital disease with high frequency of IDA defects and low frequency of ODA defects appear to be historical features of PCD reported in Japan, when EM was a main diagnostic tool. This review highlights problems experienced in this field, and provides basic information to establish a modernized PCD diagnosis and management system in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Structural lung changes seen on computed tomography (CT) scans in Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) are currently described using scoring systems derived from CF populations. This practise assumes lung damage in the two conditions is identical, potentially resulting in a failure to identify PCD-specific changes. Our study addresses this assumption. METHODS A total of 58 CT scans from 41 PCD patients (age 2-48 years) were examined and the presence and extent of abnormalities common in CF; bronchiectasis, bronchial wall thickening, atelectasis, mucous plugging, and air trapping noted. Further assessment of the PCD scans by an experienced chest radiologist identified several unique PCD specific changes. RESULTS Bronchial wall thickening was the commonest abnormality seen in PCD. All abnormalities were present more often in middle and lower lobes than in upper lobes (P < 0.001). Bronchiectasis, mucus plugging, atelectasis, and air trapping were present more often in PCD than in the historic CF cohorts which formed the basis of two CF scoring systems (P < 0.05). Extensive tree-in-bud pattern of mucus plugging, thickening of interlobar, and interlobular septa, and whole lobe atelectasis were seen significantly more frequently in PCD than CF. CONCLUSIONS Structural changes identified on CT scans in PCD are not identical to those previously described in CF patients and suggest assessment of PCD structural changes on CT should not use CF derived scoring systems.

Abstract
Background The present study aimed to develop an automated computed tomography (CT) score based on the CT quantification of high-attenuating lung structures, in order to provide a quantitative assessment of lung structural abnormalities in patients with Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD). Methods Adult (≥18 years) PCD patients who underwent both chest CT and spirometry within a 6-month period were retrospectively included. Commercially available lung segmentation software was used to isolate the lungs from the mediastinum and chest wall and obtain histograms of lung density. CT-density scores were calculated using fixed and adapted thresholds based on various combinations of histogram characteristics, such as mean lung density (MLD), skewness, and standard deviation (SD). Additionally, visual scoring using the Bhalla score was performed by 2 independent radiologists. Correlations between CT scores, forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) were evaluated. Results Sixty-two adult patients with PCD were included. Of all histogram characteristics, those showing good positive or negative correlations to both FEV1 and FVC were SD (R = − 0.63 and − 0.67; p < 0.001) and Skewness (R = 0.67 and 0.67; p < 0.001). Among all evaluated thresholds, the CT-density score based on MLD + 1SD provided the best negative correlation with both FEV1 (R = − 0.68; p < 0.001) and FVC (R = − 0.71; p < 0.001), close to the correlations of the visual score (R = − 0.60; p < 0.001 for FEV1 and R = − 0.62; p < 0.001, for FVC). Conclusions Automated CT scoring of lung structural abnormalities lung in primary ciliary dyskinesia is feasible and may prove useful for evaluation of disease severity in the clinic and in clinical trials.

Abstract
Bronchiectasis represents the final pathway of several infectious, genetic, immunologic or allergic disorders. Accurate and prompt identification of the underlying cause is a key recommendation of several international guidelines, in order to tailor treatment appropriately. Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetic cause of bronchiectasis in which failure of motile cilia leads to poor mucociliary clearance. Due to poor ciliary function in other organs, individuals can suffer from chronic rhinosinusitis, otitis media and infertility. This paper explores the current literature describing why, when and how to investigate PCD in adult patients with bronchiectasis. We describe the main PCD diagnostic tests and compare the two international PCD diagnostic guidelines. The expensive multi-test diagnostic approach requiring a high level of expertise and specialist equipment, make the multifaceted PCD diagnostic pathway complex. Therefore, the risk of late or missed diagnosis is high and has clinical and research implications. Defining the number of patients with bronchiectasis due to PCD is complex. To date, few studies outlining the aetiology of adult patients with bronchiectasis conduct screening tests for PCD, but they do differ in their diagnostic approach. Comparison of these studies reveals an estimated PCD prevalence of 1-13% in adults with bronchiectasis and describe patients as younger than their counterparts with moderate impairment of lung function and higher rates of chronic infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Diagnosing PCD has clinical, socioeconomic and psychological implications, which affect patients' life, including the possibility to have a specific and multidisciplinary team approach in a PCD referral centre, as well as a genetic and fertility counselling and special legal aspects in some countries. To date no specific treatments for PCD have been approved, standardized diagnostic protocols for PCD and recent diagnostic guidelines will be helpful to accurately define a population on which planning RCT studies to evaluate efficacy, safety and accuracy of PCD specific treatments.

Abstract
Bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory disease characterised by a syndrome of productive cough and recurrent respiratory infections due to permanent dilatation of the bronchi. Bronchiectasis represents the final common pathway of different disorders, some of which may require specific treatment. Therefore, promptly identifying the aetiology of bronchiectasis is recommended by the European Respiratory Society guidelines. The clinical history and high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) features can be useful to detect the underlying causes. Despite a strong focus on this aspect of treatment a high proportion of patients remain classified as "idiopathic". Important underlying conditions that are treatable are frequently not identified for prolonged periods of time.The European Respiratory Society guidelines for bronchiectasis recommend a minimal bundle of tests for diagnosing the cause of bronchiectasis, consisting of immunoglobulins, testing for allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and full blood count. Other testing is recommended to be conducted based on the clinical history, radiological features and severity of disease. Therefore it is essential to teach clinicians how to recognise the "clinical phenotypes" of bronchiectasis that require specific testing.This article will present the initial investigation and management of bronchiectasis focussing particularly on the HRCT features and clinical features that allow recognition of specific causes.

Abstract
Objectives Among patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis, 1–18% have an underlying diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and it is suspected that there is under-recognition of this disease. Our intention was to evaluate the specific features of PCD seen on computed tomography (CT) in the cohort of bronchiectasis in order to facilitate the diagnosis. Materials and methods One hundred and twenty-one CTs performed in patients with bronchiectasis were scored for the involvement, type, and lobar distribution of bronchiectasis, bronchial dilatation, and bronchial wall thickening. Later, associated findings such as mucus plugging, tree in bud, consolidations, ground glass opacities, interlobular thickening, intralobular lines, situs inversus, emphysema, mosaic attenuation, and atelectasis were registered. Patients with PCD (n = 46) were compared to patients with other underlying diseases (n = 75). Results In patients with PCD, the extent and severity of the bronchiectasis and bronchial wall thickness were significantly lower in the upper lung lobes (p<0.001-p = 0.011). The lobar distribution differed significantly with a predominance in the middle and lower lobes in patients with PCD (<0.001). Significantly more common in patients with PCD were mucous plugging (p = 0.001), tree in bud (p <0.001), atelectasis (p = 0.009), and a history of resection of a middle or lower lobe (p = 0.047). Less common were emphysematous (p = 0.003) and fibrotic (p<0.001) changes. A situs inversus (Kartagener’s Syndrome) was only seen in patients with PCD (17%, p <0.001). Conclusion Typical imaging features in PCD include a predominance of bronchiectasis in the middle and lower lobes, severe tree in bud pattern, mucous plugging, and atelectasis. These findings may help practitioners to identify patients with bronchiectasis in whom further work-up for PCD is called for.

Abstract
Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare inherited disease with impaired mucociliary clearance. Airway clearance techniques (ACTs) are commonly recommended for patients with PCD to facilitate mucus clearance, despite a lack of evidence in this group. Current physiotherapy practice in PCD is based on evidence extrapolated from the field of Cystic Fibrosis (CF). This paper focuses on the available evidence and outlines challenges in extrapolating evidence between the conditions for best clinical practice.

Abstract
Technical factors have historically limited the role of MRI in the evaluation of pneumonia in children in routine clinical practice. As imaging technology has advanced, recent studies utilizing practical MR imaging protocols have shown MRI to be an accurate potential alternative to CT for the evaluation of pneumonia and its complications. This article provides up-to-date MR imaging techniques that can be implemented in most radiology departments to evaluate pneumonia in children. Imaging findings in pneumonia on MRI are also reviewed. In addition, the current literature describing the diagnostic performance of MRI for pneumonia is discussed. Furthermore, potential risks and limitations of MRI for the evaluation of pneumonia in children are described.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disease that affects the motility of cilia, leading to impaired mucociliary clearance. It is estimated that the vast majority of patients with PCD have not been diagnosed as such, providing a major obstacle to delivering appropriate care. Challenges in diagnosing PCD include lack of disease-specific symptoms and absence of a single, “gold standard”, diagnostic test. Management of patients is currently not based on high-level evidence because research findings are mostly derived from small observational studies with limited follow-up period. In this review, we provide a critical overview of the available literature on clinical care for PCD patients, including recent advances. We identify barriers to PCD research and make suggestions for overcoming challenges. Challenges in PCD must be overcome through international collaboration; networks must build on recent advanceshttp://ow.ly/4d4I30dXzWg

Abstract
Symptom-limited incremental cardiopulmonary exercise test was performed in school-age children with clinically stable cystic fibrosis (CF), all with normal spirometry. Physiological parameters were compared between patients with normal lung clearance index (LCI; n=6) and patients with elevated LCI (n=6). Dyspnoea ratings during exercise were similar in both groups. Although no patient had significant dynamic hyperinflation, end-expiratory lung volumes were higher throughout exercise in patients with elevated LCI. In addition, alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient at peak exercise was higher, and SpO2 was lower in patients with elevated LCI. LCI can thus be regarded as a test performed at rest that predicts some abnormalities appearing at exercise in CF children with normal spirometry.

Abstract
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an orphan disease (MIM 244400), autosomal recessive inherited, characterized by motile ciliary dysfunction. The estimated prevalence of PCD is 1:10,000 to 1:20,000 live-born children, but true prevalence could be even higher. PCD is characterized by chronic upper and lower respiratory tract disease, infertility/ectopic pregnancy, and situs anomalies, that occur in ≈50% of PCD patients (Kartagener syndrome), and these may be associated with congenital heart abnormalities. Most patients report a daily year-round wet cough or nose congestion starting in the first year of life. Daily wet cough, associated with recurrent infections exacerbations, results in the development of chronic suppurative lung disease, with localized-to-diffuse bronchiectasis. No diagnostic test is perfect for confirming PCD. Diagnosis can be challenging and relies on a combination of clinical data, nasal nitric oxide levels plus cilia ultrastructure and function analysis. Adjunctive tests include genetic analysis and repeated tests in ciliary culture specimens. There are currently 33 known genes associated with PCD and correlations between genotype and ultrastructural defects have been increasingly demonstrated. Comprehensive genetic testing may hopefully screen young infants before symptoms occur, thus improving survival. Recent surprising advances in PCD genetic designed a novel approach called "gene editing" to restore gene function and normalize ciliary motility, opening up new avenues for treating PCD. Currently, there are no data from randomized clinical trials to support any specific treatment, thus, management strategies are usually extrapolated from cystic fibrosis. The goal of treatment is to prevent exacerbations, slowing the progression of lung disease. The therapeutic mainstay includes airway clearance maneuvers mainly with nebulized hypertonic saline and chest physiotherapy, and prompt and aggressive administration of antibiotics. Standardized care at specialized centers using a multidisciplinary approach that imposes surveillance of lung function and of airway biofilm composition likely improves patients' outcome. Pediatricians, neonatologists, pulmonologists, and ENT surgeons should maintain high awareness of PCD and refer patients to the specialized center before sustained irreversible lung damage develops. The recent creation of a network of PCD clinical centers, focusing on improving diagnosis and treatment, will hopefully help to improve care and knowledge of PCD patients.

Abstract
Ciliary motion defects cause defective mucociliary transport (MCT) in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). Current diagnostic tests do not assess how MCT is affected by perturbation of ciliary motion. In this study, we sought to use micro-optical coherence tomography (μOCT) to delineate the mechanistic basis of cilia motion defects of PCD genes by functional categorization of cilia motion. Tracheae from three PCD mouse models were analyzed using μOCT to characterize ciliary motion and measure MCT. We developed multiple measures of ciliary activity, integrated these measures, and quantified dyskinesia by the angular range of the cilia effective stroke (ARC). Ccdc39-/- mice, with a known severe PCD mutation of ciliary axonemal organization, had absent motile ciliary regions, resulting in abrogated MCT. In contrast, Dnah5-/- mice, with a missense mutation of the outer dynein arms, had reduced ciliary beat frequency (CBF) but preserved motile area and ciliary stroke, maintaining some MCT. Wdr69-/- PCD mice exhibited normal motile area and CBF and partially delayed MCT due to abnormalities of ciliary ARC. Visualization of ciliary motion using μOCT provides quantitative assessment of ciliary motion and MCT. Comprehensive ciliary motion investigation in situ classifies ciliary motion defects and quantifies their contribution to delayed mucociliary clearance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a rare congenital disease in Korea, and its clinical and imaging findings are unclear. The objective of our study was to describe the clinical and CT features of CF in Korea and compare its features with those of other diseases mimicking CF. MATERIALS AND METHODS From November 1994 to December 2014, a presumptive diagnosis of CF was made in 23 patients based on clinical or radiological examination. After the exclusion of 10 patients without diagnostic confirmation, 13 patients were included in the study. A diagnosis of CF was made with the CF gene study. CT findings were evaluated for the presence and distribution of parenchymal abnormalities including bronchiectasis, tree-in-bud (TIB) pattern, mucus plugging, consolidation, and mosaic attenuation. RESULTS Of the 13 patients, 7 (median age, 15 years) were confirmed as CF, 4 (median age, 19 years) had primary ciliary dyskinesia, 1 had bronchiectasis of unknown cause, and 1 had chronic asthma. CT of patients with CF showed bilateral bronchiectasis, TIB pattern, mosaic attenuation, and mucus plugging in all patients, with upper lung predominance (57%). In CT of the non-CF patients, bilateral bronchiectasis, TIB pattern, mosaic attenuation, and mucus plugging were also predominant features, with lower lung predominance (50%). CONCLUSION Korean patients with CF showed bilateral bronchiectasis, cellular bronchiolitis, mucus plugging, and mosaic attenuation, which overlapped with those of non-CF patients. CF gene study is recommended for the definitive diagnosis of CF in patients with these clinical and imaging features.
