Abstract

RIT is routinely performed in an outpatient infusion center at Children's Memorial Hospital (CMH), Chicago, IL. We reviewed infection patterns in children with PID who received RIT. Since 2000, 25 patients with the following diagnoses underwent RIT at CMH: SCID (13), hyper-IgM syndrome (3), IPEX (2), WAS (2), XLPD (2), reticular dysgenesis (1), Chediak-Higashi Syndrome (1), and MHC class II deficiency (1). Sixty-four percent (16/25) of patients received RIT on an outpatient basis. The remaining 9 patients were hospitalized for RIT due to pre-existing infection, complication or parental preference.
