Bronchiectasis

My daughter is 3.5 years old and had a lung CT scan this morning.

This afternoon I was told that they found some bronchiectasis. She

also had an enlarged pulmonary artery indicating likely pulmonary

hypertension. She had a heart cath done last December and did have

PH at the time but had open heart surgery in Jan and we had hoped

that would correct the PH, although there were varying opinions on

whether the small hole in her heart could be causing it. Well, now

it appears as though she still has it.

I know people with cf get bronchiectasis but how common is it in

children this age? Is it bad that she already has some?
