Abstract

This study based on the clinical analysis of 42 cases of bronchiectasis treated by surgical resection at the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Chosun University Hospital, during 6 years period from 1986 to 1991. The 42 patients with bronchiectasis were composed of 33 males and 9 females, and the peak incidence of age was in the 3rd decade. The clinical symptoms were cough, purulent sputum, hemoptysis and dyspnea. Based on the morphological classification by bronchograpgy, the common type was present in 19 cases[45%] of cylindrical type. The frequently involved site was left lower lobe, and so left lower lobectomy was the most frequently performed method of surgical resection. Postoperative complications were occurred in 8 cases[18%], such as wound infection, atelectasis, pleural effusion, hemothorax, but there were no fatal cases.
