Bronchiectasis Retention

Bronchiectasis retention

Bronchiectasis is the abnormal expansion and narrowing of the bronchi, combined with their irreversible obstruction. Bronchiectasis of the retention type occurs due to a pathological disturbance in the movement of bronchial secretions along the bronchial tree. This leads to the development of various pathological processes in the lungs and respiratory system. Origin of the disease Most often, the disease is associated with inflammation and impaired elasticity of the mucous membrane of the bronchial tree, accompanied by the excretion of purulent bacteria. The formation of stagnation of pus leads to narrowing of the walls of the bronchi and, consequently, to obstruction of patency. Inflammatory processes occur in the alveoli, bronchi, and pleura. A long period of inflammation contributes to the development of infection, mucus, and purulent fibrinous deposits. Pathogens are a variety of pathogenic microorganisms (bacteria). The source of infection may be
