Abstract
Conclusion. - This work confirms the abnormally high frequency of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies in patients with cystic fibrosis. These antibodies were observed in the sickest patients with severe infection status. They reflect the impact of inflammatory processes in the pathogenesis of the disease. Detection of these antibodies might be an indication for intensified treatment of bronchial infections.
