Abstract

Common variable immunodeficiency is one of the most frequent immunity alterations. The most common clinical presentation occurs with recurrent respiratory infections, from pneumonia to otitis, and may be associated with other diseases such as bronchiectasis or interstitial lung diseases. We report the case of a 28-year-old patient with frequent respiratory infections and nodular pulmonary infiltrates, who was diagnosed with common variable immunodeficiency and follicular bronchiolitis. In some cases, follicular bronchiolitis is associated with immunodeficiencies and should be included in a differential diagnosis with lymphoid nodular hyperplasia, lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia and low-grade BALT lymphoma.
