Article information

The nose and lungs have both histological and functional similarities and differences. Sinonasal and bronchial involvement are associated in many diseases. Cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesia, Young's syndrome, and α-1 antitrypsin deficiency are diseases in which bronchiectasis and rhinosinusitis are both present. This review considers the diseases in which bronchiectasis occurs along with sinonasal manifestations. We propose examining sinonasal disease from a new perspective by observing it in patients with bronchiectasis.

Key words:
Rhinitis
Sinusitis
Bronchiectasis

La nariz y el bronquio presentan similitudes y diferencias tanto histológicas como funcionales. Son muchas las enfermedades en que se asocian la afección nasosinusal y la bronquial. La fibrosis quística, la discinesia ciliar primaria, el síndrome de Young y el déficit de alfa-1-antitripsina son enfermedades en las que se asocian bronquiectasias y rinosinusitis. En este artículo se realiza una revisión de las bronquiectasias y de las enfermedades que las asocian junto a afección nasosinusal. El propósito es dar un nuevo enfoque de la patología nasosinusal observada en los pacientes afectados de bronquiectasias.

Palabras clave:
