|
sx of recurrent sinopulmonary infections, candidiasis, cold abscesses and abnormal grotesque facies
|
Job's syndrome
|
|
|
what is the pathology responsible for Job's syndrome?
|
deficient gamma-interferon
|
|
|
sx of bacterial infections, viral infections and partial albanism stemming from a deficiency in proper microtubule function that does not allow fusion of lysosomes with phagosomes in macrocytes
|
chediak-higashi syndrome (AR)
|
|
|
sx of granulomas, reccurent bacterial and fungal infections and a yellow NTB test that result from a deficiency in NADPH oxidase (causing an impaired respiratory burst)
|
chronic granulomatous disease (XLR)
|
|
|
sx of recurrent severe pyogenic bacterial infections and a severely low amount of ABs as a result of no mature B cells
|
Bruton's agammaglobulinemia
|
|
|
sx of bacterial infections of mucus membranes, possible anaphylaxis to transfused blood and reduced levels of IgA as a result of IgA producing plasma cells failing to develop
|
IgA deficiency
|
|
|
sx of recurrent pyogenic bacterial infections, normal numbers of B-cells and decreased levels of ABs due to abnormal B-cell maturation
|
common variable immunodeficiency
|
|
|
sx of profound deficits in T-cells; severe recurrent viral, fungal, and protozoal infections; tetany; hypocalcemia due to a developmental failure in the thymus
|
DiGeorge Syndrome (thymic aplasia)
|
|
|
sx of chronic candidiasis, normal T-cells as a result of an inability of the T-cells to destroy Candida albicans
|
Chronis mucocutaneous candidiasis
|
|
|
sx of severe, recurrent pyogenic infections as a result of the inability of B-cells to class switch from IgM to IgG production
|
Hyper IgM syndrome
|
|
|
sx of recurrent baterial, viral, fungal and protozoal infections; low AB levels and no lymph nodes that most commonly presents as infections with Pneumocystis pneumonia
|
severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)
|
|
|
sx of recurrent bacterial infections (especially otitis media), eczema, thrombocytopenia and low IgM levels as a result of a lack of production of IgM from B-cells
|
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (XLR)
|
|
|
sx of ataxia, telangiectasia, recurrent infections (especially sinopulmonary) increased risk of malignancy, low T-cell numbers and significant IgA deficiency as a result of deficient DNA repiar enzymes that causes a B and T cell deficiency
|
ataxia telangiectasia
|
