Ans 1..patients of cystic fibrosis are more likely to be infected by Pseudomonas Aueroginosa and these patientz suffer from infertility because of Congenital block or absense of vas defrens in males and in females the mucus is way too thick to let sperm pass through that...in addition the PFTs will be affected in the patients of CF ,PFTs determine the severity of disease...
Ans 2..Hypertrophy as a result of resection but it ll not be the complete one...besides almost all the PFTs will be affected...
