Abstract

Objective: Primary immune deficiencies are suggested to be associated with high incidence of allergic, autoimmune, hematological, and malignant disorders. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of allergic disorders in children with antibody deficiency. Materials and Methods: Ninety-three patients diagnosed as antibody deficiency in a one-year period were included in this study. Their ages and accompanying allergic disorders and allergic disorders in their families were evaluated retrospectively. Serum total IgE levels and serum allergen specific IgE panels of patients were obtained, and allergen skin testing (prick test) was performed. Results: 63.4% of the patients were male and the mean age was 6.4 ± 2.7 years. IgA deficiency was present in 53.8% of the patients followed by IgG subclass deficiency (15.1%), IgG and IgA subclass deficiencies (21.5%), and others (9.7%). Accompanying allergic disorders were asthma (44.1%), asthma and allergic rhinitis (9.7%), allergic skin diseases (7.5%), and allergic rhinitis (3.2%). The most ommon immunologic disease associated with allergic disorders was found to be IgG subclass deficiencies (92.4%). According to allergen skin testing, 44.1% of patients were atopic while 55.9% were non-atopic, and atopy frequency was 46% in IgA deficiency, 35.7% in IgG subclass deficiencies , and 35% in IgA and IgG subclass deficiencies. Conclusion: The high incidence of allergic diseases in antibody deficiency suggests that immunological evaluation of allergic patients can lead to early diagnoses of immune deficiencies.

Özet

Giriş: Primer immün yetmezlikli olgularda yineleyen infeksiyonların yanı sıra allerjik, otoimmün, hematolojik ve malign hastalıklara eğilim olduğu bilinmektedir. Çalışmamızda antikor eksikliği olan hastalarda allerjik hastalık sıklığının belirlenmesi ve atopinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Hastanemiz immünoloji polikliniğinde bir yıllık dönemde antikor eksikliği tanısı ile izlenen 93 hasta çalışmaya alınmıştır. Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, eşlik eden allerjik hastalık ve ailede allerjik hastalık parametreleri kaydedilmiştir. Hastalardan serum total IgE düzeyi, serum spesifik IgE panelleri istenmiş ve allerji deri testi (prick test) uygulanmıştır. Bulgular: Hastaların %63.4’ü erkek olup, yaş ortalaması 6.4 ± 2.7 yıl olarak bulunmuştur. Hasta grupları; IgA eksikliği (%53.8), IgA ve IgG subgrup eksikliği (%21.5), IgG subgrup eksikliği (%15.1) ve diğerleri (%9.7) şeklinde dağılmıştır. Eşlik eden allerjik hastalıklar sırasıyla astım (%44.1), astım + allerjik rinit (%9.7), allerjik deri hastalıkları (%7.5), allerjik rinit (%3.2) olup en sık allerjik hastalık IgG subgrup eksikliğinde (%92.9) saptanmıştır. Allerji deri testine göre hastaların %44.1’i atopik, %55.9’u nonatopik olarak belirlenirken IgA eksikliğinde %46, IgG subgrup eksikliğinde %35.7 ve IgA + IgG subgrup eksikliğinde %35 atopi varlığı saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Antikor eksikliği ile allerjik hastalık birlikteliğinin yüksek olması bizlere allerjik hastalığı olan olgularda immünolojik değerlendirme yapılmasının erken dönemde immün yetmezlik tanısını koymamızı sağlayacağını düşündürmüştür.
