The patient with recurrent episodes of diarrhea and respiratory tract infections was analysed and determined to have immunoglobulin deficiency. The patient was diagnosed as Common Variable Immuno deficiency after flowcytometric assessment and immunoglobulin treatment was started. Giardiasis was found in the parasitologic analysis. During the 10 month follow-up after immunoglobulin replacement and the traeatment of giardiasis,the diarrhea disappeared and the patient didnot have respiratory tract infections.
Tekrarlayan diare ve solunum yolu enfeksiyonu nedeniyle tetkik edilen hastada serum immunglobulin eksikliği saptandı. Immune yetmezliği olan hastada flowstometrik değerlendirmeden sonra genel değişken immun yetersizlik tanısı kondu ve aylık intravenöz immunglobulin tedavisi başlandı. Parazitolojik analizde Giardiasis bulundu. On aylık izleme sırasında immunglobulin desteği ve giardiazis tedavisi sonrası diare geriledi ve hasta tekrar solunum yolu enfeksiyonu geçirmedi.
