Abstract:
Primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) are caused by one or more defects of the immune system.Children with PIDs are more likely to experience recurrent and/or severe infections and tend to develop a wide range of complications.Respiratory diseases are the main and initial manifestation in most cases.Pulmonary complications have significant morbidity and mortality in children with PIDs.The spectrum of pathogens usually varies among different types of PID.Early diagnosis and appropriate therapy can prevent or at least slow down the development and course of respiratory complications of PIDs.In this study, the main respiratory manifestations of common PIDs in children are reviewed.
