Abstract

Bronchiectasis is a chronic lung disease that is characterized by permanent dilatation of the bronchi and fibrosis of the lung. Because it is secondary to different etiological factors a careful evaluation is crucial before surgical decision making. Herein a rare cause of bronchiectasis is reported, underlining the importance of bronchoscopy for these patients.
