Infection in patients with primary immunodeficiency disorders.
Recent advances in the understanding of the molecular basis of primary immunodeficiency disorders are reviewed, with particular emphasis on how these provide insights to the normal host's handling of particular microbes. Also reviewed are a number of reports on series of patients with these disorders, documenting the incidence and nature of the infective complications that occur and the effectiveness of treatment strategies.
