Summary:
Pathophysiology of CF lung disease. Steps hypothesised to be relevant in the progression of CF lung disease are shown. Note that the steps do not necessarily occur in the order presented, for instance, chronic neutrophilic inflammation leads to further airway obstruction through the accumulation of dead cells and mucus in the airway lumen.
