d. Cystic fibrosis is not a disorder that is seen very often. On examination of the chest in a patient suffering from cystic fibrosis you would expect to hear coarse inspiratory crackles due to the production of thick secretions and difficulty of the mucociliary system in clearing these. The result is coarse crepitations heard on auscultation.
