Inborn Errors of Immunity: A Practical Guide

Primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs) are a group of inborn disorders comprising defects in one or more components of the immune system. Awareness among clinicians about PIDs plays a key role in the early diagnosis of these disorders, in their optimal treatment and in patient outcomes. Inborn Errors of Immunity: A Practical Guide covers all clinical aspects of these disorders in rapidly digestible format. This title promotes awareness among physicians concerning the diagnosis and management of PIDs, based on clinical short notes, and illustrations. This book provides physicians, particularly those involved with pediatrics, allergies and immunology, a set of lecture notes that they can use to quickly familiarize themselves with the field, and find appropriate information and solutions, in a short amount of time. Key sections include approaches to: Combined immunodeficiency; well-defined PID syndromes; predominantly antibody deficiencies; diseases of immune dysregulation; phagocyte disorders; innate immunity deficiencies; autoinflammatory disorders; complement deficiencies; phenocopies of inborn errors of immunity; Ig replacement therapy; and HCST therapy. This eminently practical book of short notes offers a comprehensive reference for busy clinicians who nevertheless need to be familiar with the relevant clinical aspects of PIDs.
