Rheumatoid arthritis is associated with a number of pleuropulmonary disorders. A retrospective study of the frequency of rheumatoid disease in patients with bronchiectasis and pulmonary fibrosis was performed. The results suggest that the frequency of bronchiectasis and rheumatoid disease is similar to that of the well established, but rare, association between pulmonary fibrosis and rheumatoid arthritis. We therefore suggest that bronchiectasis should be remembered as a pulmonary association of rheumatoid disease which occurs as commonly as pulmonary fibrosis.
类风湿性关节炎与多种胸膜肺部疾病相关。对支气管扩张症和肺纤维化患者中类风湿疾病的发生率进行了一项回顾性研究。结果表明,支气管扩张症与类风湿疾病的发生率类似于肺纤维化与类风湿性关节炎之间已明确但罕见的关联。因此,我们建议应记住支气管扩张症是类风湿疾病的一种肺部关联疾病,其发生频率与肺纤维化一样常见。
