An association has been suggested between Marfan syndrome (MFS) and the nodular bronchiectatic form of lung disease caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). We evaluated the prevalence of bronchiectasis in 79 adult patients with MFS using computed tomography (CT) imaging. Airway dilation indicative of bronchiectasis (22/79, 28%) and bronchioloectasis (10/79, 13%) were relatively common, although the extent of dilation was not severe and was frequently confined to a single lobe. However, bronchiolitis was evident in only three patients (4%), and no patient was diagnosed with NTM lung disease.
有人提出马凡综合征（MFS）与非结核分枝杆菌（NTM）引起的结节性支气管扩张型肺病之间存在关联。我们使用计算机断层扫描（CT）成像评估了79例成年MFS患者的支气管扩张患病率。提示支气管扩张（22/79，28%）和细支气管扩张（10/79，13%）的气道扩张相对常见，尽管扩张程度不严重且常局限于单个肺叶。然而，仅3例患者（4%）有细支气管炎，且无患者被诊断为NTM肺病。
