Core Tip |
The clinical spectrum of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) has been recently better understood through the evolution of electron microscopy techniques, molecular genetics and imaging of the respiratory tract. Herein, we highlight the clinical profile of the disease from infancy to adolescence, focusing on clinical studies of children with a laboratory confirmed diagnosis of PCD. Additionally, the currently recognized associations of the type of ciliary ultrastructure defects and involved mutated genes with the clinical spectrum of the disease are presented. This information is of interest for the paediatrician in order to conduct a timely investigation of children with symptoms suggestive of PCD. |
