ABSTRACT

Common variable immunodeficiency is a disorder characterized by low levels of serum immunoglobulins associated with increased susceptibility to infections. In some patients there is a reduction in both IgG and IgA, in some others, the reduction is present in three main types of immunoglobulins (IgG, IgA and IgM). Frequent and unusual infections can occur in childhood, but in most patients the diagnosis is delayed. Diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and thrombocytopenic purpura are immune system disorders that can be associated with common variable immunodeficiency.
