Here, we aimed to review the effect of lung resection on longitudinal growth, clinical course of patients depending on annual exacerbation rates, and pulmonary function tests (PFTs) and compare them with the results of only medically treated children with non-cystic fibrosis (non-CF) bronchiectasis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Methods\u2003The medical records of patients with non-CF bronchiectasis were retrospectively analyzed. Patients who underwent lobectomy\/segmentectomy\/pneumonectomy were categorized as \u201csurgery group\u201d (n\u2009=\u200929). Age- and gender-matched patients who were only medically treated were selected as \u201cmedical group\u201d (n\u2009=\u200933). Annual data of patients were included till the end of postoperative second year in the surgery group and third year of medical treatment in the medical group.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Results\u2003Mean baseline height z-score was lower in the surgery group, and mean baseline PFT values were all lower in the surgery group than those in the medical group (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.05). In the surgery group, mean values of height z-score were \u20131.68\u2009\u00b1\u20090.92 at the time of surgery and improved to \u20131.42\u2009\u00b1\u20091.22 and \u20131.34\u2009\u00b1\u20091.05 in the first and second postoperative years, respectively, and annual intravenous antibiotic requirements decreased significantly (p\u2009&lt;\u20090.05); however, mean body mass index (BMI) z-score values and PFT parameters did not change significantly. In the medical group, height z-score mean values and PFT parameters showed nonsignificant improvement but annual exacerbation frequency, annual intravenous, and oral antibiotic requirements decreased significantly.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n            Conclusion\u2003Surgical management of non-CF bronchiectasis has no significant effect on BMI z-scores, annual exacerbation frequencies, oral antibiotic requirements and lung function tests; but can lead to significant improvement on height z-scores and decrease need of annual intravenous antibiotic requirements for acute severe exacerbations despite small number of patients in this study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0037-1608922","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,12]],"date-time":"2017-12-12T23:48:23Z","timestamp":1513122503000},"page":"058-066","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Impact of Surgery on Growth, Pulmonary Functions, and Acute Pulmonary Exacerbations in Children with Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"67","author":[{"given":"Deniz","family":"Dogru","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Pulmonology, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Songul","family":"Yalcin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Social Pediatrics, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gokcen","family":"Tugcu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Pulmonology, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ebru","family":"Yalcin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Pulmonology, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ugur","family":"Ozcelik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Pulmonology, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Saniye","family":"Ekinci","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Surgery, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nural","family":"Kiper","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Pulmonology, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nagehan","family":"Emiralioglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Pulmonology, Ankara, Turkey"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,12]]},"container-title":["The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0037-1608922.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,18]],"date-time":"2019-01-18T09:55:33Z","timestamp":1547805333000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0037-1608922"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,12]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"01","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,11]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2019,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0037-1608922","relation":{},"ISSN":["0171-6425","1439-1902"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0171-6425","type":"print"},{"value":"1439-1902","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2017,12,12]]}}}
