Definition an acquired disorder of the major bronchi and bronchioles characterized by permanent abnormal dilation and destruction of bronchial walls
the most common symptoms are chronic cough with large amounts of purulent sputum and/or recurrent hemoptysis
![Page 3: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
it involves chronic respiratory tract infection and an up-regulation of the host inflammatory response
Enhanced cellular and mediator responses bronchial mucosal biopsies reveal infiltration by neutrophils and T lymphocytes; expectorated sputum has increased concentrations of elastase and the chemoattractants IL-8, TNFa, and prostanoids

Pathological changes Cylindrical or tubular bronchiectasis: dilated airways alone, sometimes seen as a residual effect of pneumonia
Varicose bronchiectasis: focal constrictive areas along the dilated airways that result from defects in the bronchial wall
Saccular or cystic bronchiectasis: progressive dilatation of the airways, which end in large cysts, saccules, or grape-like clusters (the most severe form )
![Page 5: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The lumen of the bronchus is dilated and thThe lumen of the bronchus is dilated and there is prominent chronic inflammation in tere is prominent chronic inflammation in the bronchial wallhe bronchial wall

Bronchiectasis can present in either of two forms — a local or focal obstructive process of a lobe or segment of a lung or a diffuse process involving much of both lungs and often accompanied by other sinopulmonary diseases, such as sinusitis and asthma
![Page 7: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Pathophysiology and Etiology
Three types of focal airway obstruction
(1) luminal blockage by a foreign body, broncholith, or slowly growing benign tumor
(2) extrinsic narrowing due to enlarged lymph nodes (middle lobe syndrome)
(3) twisting or displacement of the airways after a lobar resection or chronic infection
![Page 8: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pathophysiology and Etiology
Infections
Childhood respiratory tract infections (pertussis or whooping cough)
Chronic infections( chronic lung abscess, TB)
Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
an autosomal recessive syndrome, estimated frequency at birth is 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 40,000
half have Kartagener’s syndrome (bronchiectasis, sinusitis, and situs inversus viscerum)
![Page 9: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Pathophysiology and Etiology
Immunodeficiency
humoral immunodeficiency syndromes (deficiencies of IgG, IgM, and IgA) at risk for recurrent suppurative sinopulmonary infections and bronchiectasis
immune globulin replacement reduces the frequency of infectious episodes and prevents further destruction of the airways

High-resolution computed tomographic scanning (HRCT)
the defining modality for diagnosis of bronchiectasis
Specific abnormalities found on HRCT include
(1) dilatation of an airway lumen > 1.5 times as wide as a nearby vessel
(2) lack of tapering of an airway toward the periphery
(3) varicose constrictions along airways
(4) ballooned cysts at the end of a bronchus

Normal Lung and the Lung of a Patient with Bronchiectasis. Bronchiectasis is primarily in the lower lobe, which is the most common distribution. The saccular dilatations and grapelike clusters with pools of mucus are signs of severe bronchiectasis.

Bronchoscopy
an important diagnostic tool to examine for obstruction ( foreign body, tumor, structural deformity, or extrinsic compression from lymph nodes) and to help localize the bleeding , to identify pathogen
![Page 19: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Pulmonary function tests
obstructive impairment ( low FEV1 and/or low FEV1/FVC)
airway hyperresponsiveness ( 40% with a positive reversibility test result, and 30% to 69% with a positive bronchial provocative test result)
![Page 20: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Diagnostic evaluation
(1) to confirm the diagnosis of bronchiectasis
(2) to identify potentially treatable underlying causes
(3) to provide functional assessment
Imaging of the chest is always necessary to confirm the diagnosis
![Page 21: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Acute Exacerbations
An exacerbation: including four of the nine symptoms
change in sputum production; increased dyspnea; increased cough; fever (>38.0°C); increased wheezing; malaise, fatigue, lethargy, or decreased exercise tolerance; changes in chest sounds ; reduced pulmonary function; radiographic changes
![Page 24: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Early antibiotic therapy: fluoroquinolone as levofloxacin or ciprofloxacin for at least 7 to 10 days
Sputum culture and sensitivity testing: who fail to respond to the initial antibiotic or who have repeated symptomatic attacks in a short interval
![Page 25: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Bronchopulmonary HygienePostural drainage, chest physiotherapy, thinning and loosening of secretions, the administration of a bronchodilator and of inhaled corticosteroids –part of maintenance therapy and treatment for acute exacerbations
![Page 26: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Hemoptysis
life-threatening hemoptysis: > 600 ml/ day
bronchoscopy or CT of the chest is warranted to help determine which lobe or side is bleeding
interventional radiology: selective bronchial arteries embolization
surgery may be required to resect an area suspected of bleeding
![Page 27: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Surgery Removal of an obstructing tumor or residue of a foreign body
Elimination of the segments or lobes the most damaged and suspected of contributing to acute exacerbations, overwhelming viscous secretions, mucous impaction, and plugs
Elimination of areas that are subject to uncontrolled hemorrhage
![Page 28: Bronchiectasis Hu Suping Pulmonary Department 1st clinical college, Wuhan University](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070406/56814033550346895dab96f7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Removal of damaged lung suspected of harboring problematic organisms such as multidrug-resistant M. tuberculosis or M. avium
Double-lung transplantation is now considered for patients with cystic fibrosis and respiratory failure (one year survival rate 75% and 48% at five years)
