Inborn errors of immunity (primary immunodeficiencies).

ABSTRACT: Primary immunodeficiencies (PID), now often referred to as inborn errors of immunity (IEI), are a large heterogeneous group of disorders that result from deficiencies in immune system development and/or function. IEIs can be broadly classified as disorders of adaptive immunity (e.g., combined or humoral immunodeficiencies) or of innate immunity (e.g., phagocyte and complement disorders). Although the clinical manifestations of IEIs are highly variable, traditionally many disorders involve an increased susceptibility to infection. Research in recent years has underscored how IEI can present with features other than infection such as: severe atopy, autoimmunity, autoinflammation, lymphoproliferation, and/or malignancy resulting from immune dysregulation.
