Fibrosis quística: enfrentando la transición desde el pediatra hacia el internista

The increased survival of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) resulted in the appearance of new pulmonary and non-pulmonary complications. Even though subjects with CF present with inflammatory pulmonary changes at birth, several pathogens such as Staphyloccocus aureus, Haemophilus influenzae and Pse...
