Axial CT image showing chronic sinusitis in an individual with Kartagener syndrome When accompanied by the combination of situs inversus (reversal of the internal organs), chronic sinusitis , and bronchiectasis , it is known as Kartagener syndrome [ 3 ] (only 50% of primary ciliary dyskinesia cases include situs inversus).
A CT scan showing evidence of the nasal cycle: the more patent airway is on the right of the image, the swollen turbinates congesting the left. The nasal cycle is the subconscious [1] [2] alternating partial congestion and decongestion of the nasal cavities in humans and other animals.
