Respiratory presentation of PIDs

The heterogeneity of the PIDs, the variability of their clinical manifestations, inconsistence between genotype and phenotype, and involvement of whatever organ or tissue supports the interdisciplinary character of these diseases, which requires multidisciplinary approach in their management.

In children, respiratory symptoms are typical initial presentation of various PIDs.

General clinical course of PIDs and different approaches in establishment of the diagnosis (Adapted from Lindegren ML et al)

Page 4: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

The most important PIDs associated with respiratory complications in children.

Mild PIDs Severe PIDs Transient hypogammaglobulinaemia Common variable of infancy immunodeficiency

Selective deficiency of IgA Severe CID

Deficiencies of IgG sub-classes Congenital neutropenias

Deficiencies of specific antibodies X-linked

agammaglobulinaemia

Deficiency of mannose-binding Hyper-IgE syndromes lectin DNA-repair defects

Respiratory manifestations and complications of PIDs in childhood with estimated average frequency

Respiratory manifestationFrequency

(Bronchiectasis, lung abscesses, empyema, pneumatoceles)

4. Interstitial lung diseases (LIP) ↑

5. Lymphoproliferative diseases (Lymphoma, benign Rare lymphoproliferative diseases and lymphadenopathy)

Simplified classification of the respiratory manifestations of PIDs

Page 11: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Pathophysiological substrates of the development of respiratory complications of PIDs

Page 12: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Infectious manifestations of PIDs

1. Predominantly humoral deficiencies

• IgA deficiency• IgG sub-classes deficiency• Specific Ig deficiency• CVID• XLA (Bruton)• Hyper-IgE syndrome• Hyper- IgM syndrome

Page 13: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Predominantly humoral deficiencies, cont

Characterised by recurrent and prolonged respiratory

infections:

• Rhinosinusitis• Otitis media• Bronchitis• Bronchiectasis• Pneumonia

Respiratory infections in PIDs are SPUR (Severe, Persistent, Unusual, atypical, opportunistic micro-organisms and Recurrent). Onset of symptoms is usually beyond 6 months of age after maternal IgG have disappeared.

Page 14: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

2. Combined and other well defined PIDs a. Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID)

Severe recurrent respiratory infections

P jiroveciiCMVAdenovirusParainfluenzae type 3RSV can lead to persistent bronchiolitis

Page 15: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Combined and other well defined PIDs, cont

b. Hyper-IgE syndrome (Job syndrome)

Recurrent sino-pulmonary infections

S aureusS pneumoniaeH influenzae

May lead to bronchiectasis (P aeruginosa)

Pneumatoceles are another complication (Aspergillus

and scedosporium spp)

Page 16: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

c. Hyper-IgE syndrome

Recurrent pneumonias

Encapsulated bacteriaCMVHistoplasmaP jiroveciiC albicansC neoformans

Page 17: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

3. Phagocytic immunodeficiencies

Predominantly chronic granulomatous disease and congenital neutropenias

Common pathogens

S aureus P aeruginosaK pneumoniae Aspergillus sppAerobacter spp C albicans

Others are Burkholderia and Serratia spp

Difficult to treat, slow to resolve, recurrent pneumonias.

Page 18: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

4. Complement immunodeficiencies

These diseases are generally underdiagnosed and underreported.

C1 C4 deficiencies lead to pyogenic infections

C5 C9 deficiencies predispose to Neisseria spp infections

C3 deficiency will particularly cause recurrent pneumonias.

There is an association with hereditary angioedema which is potentially life-threatening when occuring in the larynx.

Page 19: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Non-infectious respiratory complications of PIDs

Recurrent bacterial pulmonary infections may cause the following

Air trapping Atelectasis Bronchial wall thickening Bronchiectasis

Page 20: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

1. Bronchiectasis

Major causes

• Cystic fibrosis• Primary ciliary dyskinesia• Primary immunodeficiencies

CVID up to 73% XLA from 17 to 76% Selective IgA deficiency IgG sub-classes deficiency

Mainly cylindrical type, bilateral and diffuse Affecting middle and lower lobes Proximal bronchi

Early detection and aggressive management are required.

Page 21: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

2. Interstitial lung disease and PIDs

CVID may cause granulomatous lymphocytic interstitial lung disease (GLILD) which may present as

Lymphocytic interstitial pneumonia Follicular bronchiolitis Granulomatous lung disease Organising pneumonia Pulmonary lymphoid hyperplasia

Development of GLILD may be associated with infections such as

HHV8EBVCMV

Page 22: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Interstitial lung disease and PIDs, cont

ILD usually results from immune dysregulation.It has a poor prognosis.There is increased prevalence of

lymphoproliferative disorders.ILD is asymptomatic at the initial stage, hence

screening at risk patients is very important.

Page 23: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

3. Respiratory tract tumours in PIDs

There is a strong association with EBV. CVID and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome patients are at greater

risk.

Some of the tumours areLeiomyomaPulmonary adenocarcinomaThymomaLymphoma (NHL)

These tumours must be differentiated from benign

lymphoproliferative diseases.

Page 24: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

4. Other respiratory complications of PIDs

Allergies Primary pulmonary hypertension Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis Cor pulmonale Respiratory insufficiency

Page 25: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Examination and investigations in a child with recurrent, severe and prolonged respiratory infections

Examination:

• Plot weight and height on growth chart

• Respiratory examination including clubbing and chest wall deformity

• Look for lymphadenopathy and/or hepatosplenomegaly

• Examine mouth/mucous membranes? candidal infection

• ENT and full systemic examination, including skin

Page 26: Respiratory presentation of PIDs Dr Somwe Wa Somwe Paediatrician Department of Paediatrics and Child Health UTH.

Investigations to consider:

First line:

FBC and WBC differential IgG and IgG subclasses, IgA, IgM Specific antibodies to Tetanus, HiB and pneumococcus

(repeat levels one month after any boosters)

Second line:

Lymphocyte subsets Neutrophil oxidative burst if indicated Simple spirometry (if more than 5 years) Plain chest radiograph High resolution computerized tomography of chest Bronchoscopy
