[Clinical symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of phagocyte dysfunction].
When patients suffer from recurrent infections with bacteria or fungi that react poorly with the commonly prescribed antibiotics, phagocyte dysfunctions should be considered. In this article, a survey is given of the mechanism of action of these cells, the dysfunctions that may occur, the resulting clinical symptoms, the laboratory diagnostics and some therapeutical approaches.
