ABSTRACT
In all developed countries, it is gratifying that the incidence of bronchiectasis has become so reduced that resection for this disease is currently almost none existent. It is regrettable that thoracic surgeons in developing countries still see many bronchiectatic lesions. This paper is based on personal observations and surgical experience with 440 patients seen and managed at the Medical City Teaching Hospital during twenty years period [1977-1994]
