Publication Bronchiectasis in a positive HIV child: a case report(Institute of Medicine, 2013) Shrestha, L; Basnet, S; Kanskar, PAbstract Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has a wide spectrum of pulmonary disease which usually complicates the clinical course. Non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is more common in children with HIV infection than in general population. Bronchiectasis in children with HIV if not diagnosed early and managed aggressively can lead to irreversible destruction of bronchial wall and surrounded tissue leading to significant morbidity. This might decrease the benefit of the antiretroviral therapy (ARV) treatment on the long run.
