A 33-year-old man was admitted to our division for further evaluation of repeated fever and purulent sputa of more than 10 years duration. Based on clinical symptoms, chest roentgenograms, bronchograms, seminal examination, testicular biopsy specimen and electron micrograph of cilia from the left main bronchial mucosa, the diagnosis of Young's syndrome was made. A drip infusion myelogram, which was performed because of a persistent hematuria, revealed bilateral medullary sponge kidney, suggesting the involvement of this hereditary disorder in Young's syndrome.
一名33岁男性因反复发热和咳脓性痰10余年入院，接受进一步评估。根据临床症状、胸部X线片、支气管造影、精液检查、睾丸活检标本以及左主支气管黏膜纤毛的电子显微镜检查结果，诊断为扬氏综合征。因持续血尿进行的滴注式脊髓造影显示双侧髓质海绵肾，提示这种遗传性疾病与扬氏综合征有关。
