Abstract.

We report the case of a young girl with Kartagener’s syndrome who suffered from severe bronchiectasis confined to the left middle lobe. Due to chronic abscedation which failed to respond to medical therapy, resection of the left middle lobe was performed. Although there was an initial clinical benefit, afterwards she had to be treated again for recurrent infectious exacerbations.
