AI Article Synopsis
- Immunodeficiencies in children can be categorized into primary immunodeficiency syndromes and secondary disorders affecting immune regulation.
- Thoracic complications are common in immunocompromised kids and can differ based on the type of immunodeficiency they have.
- Imaging techniques are crucial for identifying and differentiating the various complications, so radiologists need to be knowledgeable about pediatric immune disorders and their underlying mechanisms.
Article Abstract
Immunodeficiencies in children may be caused by primary immunodeficiency syndromes or can result from secondary disorders of immune regulation. Thoracic complications in immunocompromised children are frequent and may vary according to the type of the immunodeficiency. Imaging plays a pivotal role in detection and distinction of the variety of sequelae. It is important for the radiologist to understand both the spectrum of pediatric immune disorders, and the mechanisms underlying these disorders.
