In 1981, Rossman and coworkers came up with the term primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) because some patients with Kartagener syndrome had cilia that were not immobile but exhibited an uncoordinated and inefficient movement pattern. According to recent nomenclature, all congenital ciliary dyskinesias are classified as primary to differentiate it from acquired ciliary dyskinesia.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.medscape.com/answers/299299-121830/how-was-ciliary-dyskinesia-kartagener-syndrome-first-described |title=How was ciliary dyskinesia (Kartagener syndrome) first described? |format= |work= |accessdate=}}</ref> | |||

In 1981, Rossman and coworkers came up with the term primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) because some patients with Kartagener syndrome had cilia that were not immobile but exhibited an uncoordinated and inefficient movement pattern. According to recent nomenclature, all congenital ciliary dyskinesias are classified as primary to differentiate it from acquired ciliary dyskinesia.[1]
