Abstract:
Approximately 50 % of patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia have Kartagener syndrome, which classically described by a triad including dextrocardia, chronic sinusitis and bronchiectasis. Resynchronous dyskinesia, mucociliary clearance disturbances cause disturbances in the drainage function of the airways, which is the main cause of recurrent infections of the upper and lower respiratory tract-chronic rhinosinusitis, otitis media, chronic bronchitis with the formation of bronchiectasis, recurrent pneumonia. The given example of clinical observation showed the whole complexity of diagnosis of the Kartagener syndrome caused by the rarity of this disease.
