See: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ abstract: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an inherited autosomal-recessive disorder of motile cilia characterised by chronic lung disease, rhinosinusitis, hearing impairment and subfertility. Nasal symptoms and respiratory distress usually start soon after birth, and by adulthood bronchiectasis is invariable. Organ laterality defects, usually situs inversus, occur in ∼50% of cases. The estimated prevalence of PCD is up to ∼1 per 10,000 births, but it is more common in populations where consanguinity is common. This review examines who to refer for diagnostic testing. It describes the limitations surrounding diagnosis using currently available techniques and considers whether recent advances to genotype patients with PCD will lead to genetic testing and screening to aid diagnosis in the near future. It discusses the challenges of monitoring and treating respiratory and ENT disease in children with PCD. date: 2014-09 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/archdischild-2013-304831 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Journal Article, Research Support, Non-U.S. Gov't, Review verified: verified_manual elements_source: PubMed elements_id: 943689 doi: 10.1136/archdischild-2013-304831 pii: archdischild-2013-304831 language_elements: ENG lyricists_name: Mitchison, Hannah lyricists_id: HMMIT79 full_text_status: public publication: Arch Dis Child volume: 99 number: 9 pagerange: 850 - 856 event_location: England citation: Lucas, JS; Burgess, A; Mitchison, HM; Moya, E; Williamson, M; Hogg, C; National PCD Service, UK, .; (2014) Diagnosis and management of primary ciliary dyskinesia.
