Introduction Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a hereditary disorder that primarily affects the lungs and digestive system. It is characterized by the production of abnormally thick and sticky mucus that can clog the airways and obstruct the pancreas. CF is a progressive disease, leading to severe respiratory and digestive problems, and it often results in a shortened lifespan. Causes Cystic fibrosis is caused by mutations in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene.
