The Relationship between Genotype and Phenotype in Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Patients

摘要

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a chronic genetic disease that affects the respiratory tract, characterized by different clinical and laboratory features. It has a very difficult diagnosis, and high morbidity. In recent years, with the advances in genetics, the rate of diagnosis has increased considerably. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the relationship between PCD patients’ clinical, radiological and laboratory features and genetic analysis.
