| Summary: | Kartagener’s syndrome [KS] is a rare, autosomal recessive disease comprising a triad of situs inversus, bronchiectasis and sinusitis. Usually, KS manifest in early childhood and the manifestations include chronic, thick, mucoid rhinorrhoea, recurrent otitis media, wheeze, chronic wet cough with unexplained respiratory distress.
