Familial middle lobe bronchiectasis

Joe Jie Hoo · Clinical Genetics · 1979

A rare familial occurrence of middle lobe bronchiectasis is reported in two siblings of a family with seven children. No definite cause for the development of bronchiectasis could be established. Enlarged hilar lymph nodes were found in the resected middle lobe which were compressing the middle lobe bronchus, and this may have contributed to the development of bronchiectasis.
