Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Kartagener syndrome is a very rare, congenital, cilia-related disease comprising a triad of bronchiectasis, sinusitis and situs inversus. It is diagnosed in about 50% patients with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD).
CASE REPORT: The authors report a case of a 72-year old female patient with a history of chronic cough and expectoration of muco-purulent secretion. An X-Ray examination in Posterior-Anterior projection revealed an abnormal configuration of chest's organs. Diagnosis was complemented with Computed Tomography (CT) of chest and paranasal sinuses and laboratory tests as well. Compilation of clinical symptoms and test results led to the diagnosis of Kartagener syndrome.
CONCLUSION: This case report shows the usefulness of diagnostic imaging in the diagnostic process of Kartagener syndrome, as well as during subsequent monitoring of the disease.
