Abstract EN
There are not many articles about the chronic bronchial infection/colonization in patients with underlying lung disease other than cystic fibrosis (CF), especially with non-CF bronchiectasis (NCFBQ).
The prevalence of B.
cepacia complex is not well known in NCFBQ.
The vast majority of published clinical data on Burkholderia infection in individuals with CF is comprised of uncontrolled, anecdotal, and/or single center experiences, and no consensus has emerged regarding treatment.
We present two cases diagnosed with bronchiectasis (BQ) of different etiology, with early pulmonary infection by B.
cepacia complex, which was eradicated with inhaled aztreonam lysine.
