Last Updated: 2024/11/21, There is a common variable immune deficiency (CVI) in immunodeficiency, which is prone to respiratory tract infection, chronic digestive tract diseases and lymph node enlargement in a small number of people.

In immunodeficiency, there is a common variable immune deficiency (CVI), which is prone to respiratory tract infection and chronic digestive tract diseases when lacking, and a few people will have enlarged lymph nodes. In respiratory tract infection, bacterial acute and chronic sinusitis, and otitis media, pharyngitis, tracheitis, pneumonia and so on, can lead to bronchiectasis.

Lack of common variable immune genes in the human body, loss of resistance to haemophilus influenza bacilli, staphylococci, streptococci, pneumococci and other pathogens, and mycoplasma, pneumocystis carinii, herpes zoster virus, Candida, herpes simplex virus, so it is easy to infect and develop the above diseases. Because of the lack of common variable immune genes, the autoantibody response is weak, so infections and diseases develop serious respiratory diseases.

A small number of people who lack common variable immune genes are easy to be complicated with nervous system diseases after respiratory tract inflammation. The common complications are chronic suppurative meningitis, viral encephalitis and so on. Another characteristic is that the disease is chronic and the treatment is protracted. As a result, some cases will cause organic damage to the diseased tissue, such as bone cancer, thymoma, lymphoma, various thyroid diseases, and some will form non-caseous granuloma, thus affecting the lung, liver, spleen and skin.

Digestive tract diseases, such as chronic malabsorption syndrome, fatty diarrhea, folic acid and vitamin B12 deficiency, lactose intolerance, disaccharidase deficiency, protein loss bowel disease, etc., are also common diseases in people with variable immune gene deficiency. And may also appear intestinal symptoms caused by intestinal Pyriform flagellate and nodular lymphoid tissue hyperplasia and so on. A small number of patients with common variable immune gene deficiency can have enlarged lymph nodes and splenomegaly, and when they do not know the cause, they are easy to be misdiagnosed as lymphoma.
