FOLLICULAR BRONCHIOLITIS IN PATIENT WITH COMMON VARIABLE IMMUNODEFICIENCY

Full Text

Abstract

The article considers the first clinical case of identification of follicular bronchiolitis on the background of variable immune deficiency (total deficiency of IgA, partial deficiency of IgG) in Russia. It is shown that this lesion often mimics sarcoidosis. It is emphasized that screening for the immunodeficiency is reasonable in patients with reticulonodular radiological pattern of changes of lung tissue, and granulomatous and lymphoid changes according to the morphological picture.
