[Nasal mucociliary function in children with recurrent infections of the airways].
Nasal mucociliary function has been studied in 21 children suffering recurrent airway infections. Previously, cystic fibrosis, immune deficits and allergy were discharged. 38 per cent of these patients had alterations in the mucociliary transport and in this group, it was observed an increase of bronchiectasis, permanent rhinorrhea and serous otitis media.
