Non-Immunologic Causesg

Recurrent infectionsRecurrent infections• Abnormal mucous membranes and integuments:

– Burns, severe eczema, bullous diseases, ectodermal d l i t th tdysplasia, percutaneous catheters.

• Obstruction of hollow viscus: – Allergic rhinitis, adenoid hypertropy with Eustachian tube

dysfunction, asthma, cystic fibrosis, inhaled foreign body, posterior urethral valves, ureteropelvic junction obstruction.

• Foreign body: – Ventriculoperitoneal shunt, prosthetic cardiac valves,

orthopedic devices, catheters.• Vascular abnormalities:

– Large left to right intracardiac shunt, diabetes mellitus.

Non-Immunologic Causes

Recurrent infections

g

Recurrent infections• Congenital:

– Cysts and sinus tracts, tracheoesophageal fistula, abnormal ciliary functionabnormal ciliary function.

• Neurologic: – Incoordinate swallowing, recurrent aspiration, poor

i t ff trespiratory effort.• Metabolic disorders:

– Galactosemia, certain amino acid and organic acid disorders.

• Unusual microbiologic factors: – Antibiotic overgrowth, resistant organism, continuous g g

reinfection.

Secondary Immunodeficiencyy y

• Premature and Newborn• Premature and Newborn• Hereditary & Metabolic Diseases:

– Chromosal abnomalities (Down syndrome, etc)– Uremia, DM, NS, myotonic dystrophy– Malnutrition,vitamine & mineral deficiency– Protein-losing enteropathies,

• Immunosuppressive agents & Radiation• Infectious diseases:

– Congenital rubella viral examthem (measles varicella etc)– Congenital rubella, viral examthem (measles, varicella, etc)– HIV, CMV, EBV– Bacterial infections, mycobacterial, fungal, parasite.

Secondary Immunodeficiency

• Infiltrative & Hematologic diseases

y y

• Infiltrative & Hematologic diseases– Histiocytosis, lymphoma, leukemia, myeloma– Agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia, cyclic neutropenia

T l t i i– Transplant recipiens• Surgery & Trauma

– Burns, head injury, hypothemia– Splenectomy, anesthesia

• Miscellaneous – SLE, alcoholic hepatitis, chronic active hepatitis, etc., p , p ,– Aging
