Abstract

Th e awareness of the probability of primary immunodefi ciency in adults has been increased. However, careful diff erential diagnosis is necessary before a fi nal diagnosis of primary immunodefi ciency is made. In this report, a patient with a preliminary diagnosis of primary immunodefi ciency due to recurrent pulmonary infections and selective IgA defi ciency who was fi nally diagnosed as chronic lymphocytic leukemia was presented.

Özet

Primer immün yetmezliklerin erişkin hastalarda da görülebileceği konusunda farkındalık düzeyi giderek artmaktadır. Ancak erişkinde primer immün yetmezlik tanısını kesinleştirmeden önce ayırıcı tanıların dikkatlice yapılması gereklidir. Bu yazıda tekrarlayan akci- ğer infeksiyonları ve selektif IgA eksikliği nedeniyle primer immün yetmezlik ön tanısı almış, ancak son tanısı kronik lenfositik lösemi olarak belirlenen bir hasta sunulmuştur.
