Bronchiectasis Historical Perspective
- In 1819, René Laennec, inventor of the stethoscope, was the first to describe bronchiectasis.[1]
- Laennec described it as "abnormal dilatation of bronchi and bronchioles due to repeated cycles of airway infection and inflammation"[2]
- In 1880s, Dr. William Osler, a Canadian physican, researched bronchiectasis in greater detail[3]
- In the late 20th century, it was thought to be an orphan disease
