Details and patient eligibility

About

The purpose of this study is to identify the abnormalities of bronchial trans-epithelial transport of chloride, sodium and bicarbonate in patients with idiopathic dilations of the bronchi.

Full description

Dilations of the bronchi happens for one child over 3000. The extended forms may progress to respiratory failure. More than one case over two remains of undetermined cause. If the prototype is the cystic fibrosis, other abnormalities of ionic transport may be the cause of a failure of mucociliary clearance and enhance the idiopathic dilations of the bronchi.

The purpose of this study is to identify the abnormalities of bronchial trans-epithelial transport of chloride, sodium and bicarbonate in patients with idiopathic dilations of the bronchi, in comparison to two others groups of patients (without abnormality of ionic transport/with typical cystic fibrosis).

Inclusion criteria

Common criteria for all patients

  • Age between 2 and 20 years.
  • Patient weighing more than 12kg
  • Patients with a scheduled bronchoscopy under clinical monitoring (assessment of bronchial involvement, local samples for bacteriological and histological examination)
  • Signature of consent by the patient or by the / the holder (s) of parental authority and the investigator
  • Patient affiliated to a social security scheme or entitled
  • Patient with contraception (for woman of childbearing age) Specific criteria for idiopathic bronchiectasis patients Patient with idiopathic bronchiectasis in at least two lobes, diagnosis made after extensive screening of known acquired or congenital causes

Specific criteria for "control" patients without abnormal ion transport

  • Patient Not having bronchiectasis s or any supposed alteration in transepithelial ion transport
  • Patients with fiberoptic bronchoscopy performed for one of the following indications:
  • Pulmonary malformations
  • Laryngeal, tracheal, bronchomalacia
  • Airway compression
  • Interstitial pathology
  • Suspicion of foreign body
  • Suspected tuberculosis Specific criteria for patients with a typical form of cystic f ibrosis (CF) Patient carrying 2 causing mutations in the CFTR gene (according to CFTR2 database; http://www.cftr2.org/mutations_history.php) and sweat test> 60 milliequivalent per liter (mEq/L).

Exclusion criteria

Common criteria for all patients

  • Smoking passive or active
  • Not essential bronchial endoscopy in the clinical follow
  • Extension of bronchoscopy time attributed to the difference in potential bronchial incompatible with the patient's general status
  • Patient pregnant or breast feeding
  • Hypersensitivity or cons known contraindications to health products for measurement of DDP (isoproterenol, Amiloride, ATP)

Specific criteria for idiopathic DDB patients

Presence of other congenital or acquired etiologies of DDB:

  • Typical or atypical cystic fibrosis,
  • Immunodeficiency,
  • Primary ciliary dyskinesia,
  • Abnormal bronchial wall structure (Williams-Campbell syndrome, Mounier-Kuhn, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Marfan's disease)
  • Infectious DDBs post
  • Extrinsic or endobronchial obstruction (foreign body, malformation, middle lobe syndrome)
  • Chronic inhalation (GERD, swallowing disorders, gastroesophageal tracheal fistula)
  • Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis,
  • System disease.
