Reversal of cylindrical bronchial dilatations in a subset of adults with cystic fibrosis treated with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor

Conclusions
Although bronchial dilatations are generally considered irreversible, ETI was associated with reversal, which was limited to the cylindrical bronchial dilatation subtype, and occurred in a small subset of awCF. Initiating ETI earlier in life may reverse early bronchial dilatations.
