Abstract

COPD and Bronchiectasis are characterized by fixed airway obstruction and chronic cough. Detection of bronchiectasis on high-resolution computed tomography in COPD patients may indicate the presence of more advanced ventilatory dysfunction, frequent exacerbations, and bacterial colonization.

Objectives: 1. Determine the rate of bronchiectasis in COPD patients; 2. Describe features of bronchiectasis on HRCT and related factors.

Material and methods: 84 COPD patients were hospitalized from March 2020 to April 2022 at the Tuberculosis and Lung disease Hospital of Binh Dinh province.

Study methods descriptive.

Results: The rate of bronchiectasis in COPD patients 48.8%. The most common morphology of bronchiectasis is cylindrical 41.4%, cystic 26.8%, varicose 15.9%, mixed 12.2%. Lower lobe position 46.3%, middle lobe 34.1 %, upper lobe 19.5%. Distribution of two lungs 51.2%, left lung 36.6%, right lung 12.2%.

Conclusion: the incidence of bronchiectasis in COPD patients is higher, cylindrical images are common in the position of the lower and middle lobes in the distribution of the two lungs.
