Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Report
Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare condition characterised by chronic respiratory tract infections, abnormal positioning of internal organs and infertility. The clinical picture is determined by abnormalities in cilia and flagella, which are located in the lining of the airways, the reproductive system and other organs and tissues. Primary ciliary dyskinesia is caused by mutations in several genes; mutations in the DNAI1 and DNAH5 genes account for approximately 30 per cent of all cases.
