Bronchiectasis is defined as the permanent, chronic, and irreversible abnormal dilation of the airways.Bronchiectasis can result from a multitude of different underlying disorders, making the identification of its etiology crucial for guiding treatment.Patients commonly present with chronic cough, copious sputum production, and recurrent pneumonia attacks. The diagnosis of bronchiectasis is established through clinical and radiological findings. The objectives of treatment are to reduce recurrent pneumonia attacks, enhance quality of life, and halt disease progression.Bronchiectasis remains a common chronic lung disease that can affect the quality of life and expectancy of those affected. We recommend the surgical removal of affected lung regions in clinically selected patients.
