IVIG Anaphylaxis in a patient with Common variable immune deficiency disease (CVID).
Authors
Abstract:
Common variable immune deficiency disease (CVID) is one of the most common primary immunodeficiency disorders. It causes reduction of immunoglobulin levels and specific antibodies production and enhancement of recurrent and chronic infections risk, especially respiratory infections and gastrointestinal tracts. Here, we report a case of CVID in a 3 years old male with recurrent hospitalizations because of gastroenteritis and sinobronchitis infections that was treated as allergic disease for a long time but he does not improved. During receiving IVIG he had sever reaction and treated as anaphylaxis an admitted to ICU.

Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Treated with Intravenous Immunoglobulin in a Patient with Common Variable Immune Deficiency
INTRODUCTION Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) represents a large heterogeneous group of antibody-deficiency syndromes associated with a wide range of clinical features and a lack of defined causes in the realm of primary immunodeficiencies. Here, we present a case of CVID in a 62-year-old white male patient with a history of longstanding complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). CASE PRES...

CVID is the commonest serious antibody deficiency in adults. There are a number of associated complications including autoimmunity, of which immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a relatively common example. ITP usually responds to treatment with corticosteroids, other immunosuppression, splenectomy or high dose intravenous immunologlobulin (IVIG). The management of ITP refractory to these t...

full textHow I treat common variable immune deficiency.
Common variable immunodeficiency is a rare immune deficiency, characterized by low levels of serum immunoglobulin G, A, and/or M with loss of antibody production. The diagnosis is most commonly made in adults between the ages of 20 and 40 years, but both children and older adults can be found to have this immune defect. The range of clinical manifestations is broad, including acute and chronic ...
full textCharacterization of immunologic defects in patients with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) with intestinal disease.
BACKGROUND Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a heterogeneous disorder commonly presenting with recurrent sinopulmonary infections. In all, 6%-10% of CVID patients develop an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-like disorder, making these patients a unique population to investigate immune-mediated gastrointestinal disease. This study examined whether defects in peripheral and/or intestinal...
full textBacterial corneal ulcer associated with common variable immune deficiency
Common variable immune deficiency (CVID) is one of the most commonly diagnosed primary immunodeficiencies. Generally, patients have a history of recurrent sinopulmonary infections, hypogammaglobulinemia of two or more immunoglobulin isotypes, and impaired functional antibody responses. Reports of corneal involvement associated with CVID are limited. We describe a case of corneal ulceration asso...
