Immunodeficiency with predominant t-cell defect?
Immunodeficiency with a predominant T-cell defect can result in increased susceptibility to viral, fungal, and intracellular bacterial infections. These defects can impair cell-mediated immunity, leading to difficulty in recognizing and attacking infected cells. Management may involve immune globulin therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in severe cases.
