Abstract

Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), also known as immotile-cilia syndrome, is a rare genetic disease that is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Several studies have explored certain aspects of PCD in the Arab world, yet much is still lacking in terms of identifying the different characteristics of this disease. In this paper, we aim to briefly cover those studies published about PCD in Arab countries, as well as to provide recommendations and guidelines for future studies.
