We report a patient with chronic bronchiectasis who developed systemic vasculitis. The patient was initially treated with immunosuppression; however, the addition of antibiotic therapy improved control of her vasculitis and the need for immunosuppression was reduced. Chronic bronchial suppuration may have an aetiological role in the pathogenesis of this condition.
我们报告了一例患有慢性支气管扩张症并发生系统性血管炎的患者。该患者最初接受免疫抑制治疗;然而,加用抗生素治疗改善了对其血管炎的控制,并减少了免疫抑制的需求。慢性支气管化脓可能在这种疾病的发病机制中具有病因学作用。
