Health

Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) is the name given to a group of inherited immunodeficiency diseases caused by faulty phagocytes. (references)

These include X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia, X-linked Hyper-IgM Syndrome, Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome, Ataxia Telangiectasia, four forms of Chronic Granulomatous Disease, and several forms of SCID. The search for other genes that cause PI is under way and more are being discovered. (references)

For example, a young infant suffering from diarrhea, pneumonia, and thrush, and exhibiting "failure to thrive," may well have SCID. A 4-year-old with swollen lymph glands, skin problems, pneumonia, and bone infections may have Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD). A 10-year old with sinus and respiratory infections, an enlarged spleen, and signs of autoimmune problems is apt to have Common Variable Immunodeficiency. (references)
