Clinical description Neutrophil immunodeficiency syndrome presents as similar to leukocyte-adhesion deficiency (LAD; see this term), however there is no evidence of deficiency in the CD11b/CD18 complex. [orpha.net]

Affected individuals present with leukocytosis, neutrophilia, severe recurrent bacterial infections and poor wound healing. [uniprot.org]

  Immunodeficiency typically manifests as recurrent infections. However, recurrent infections are more likely to have causes other than immunodeficiency (eg, inadequate treatment, resistant organisms, other disorders that predispose to infection). [merckmanuals.com]

Prognosis The prognosis depends on the presence of severe autoimmune disease, recurrent infections causing structural lung damage, and the development of a malignancy. A 20-year survival rate is 64% for male patients and 67% for female patients. [emedicine.medscape.com]

[…] genetic cause cannot be identified in the majority of patients with clinical features of CVID, there are an increasing number of identificable conditions that can be linked to newly identified genetic disorders that have implications for the long term prognosis [worldallergy.org]

Etiology The disease is due to a point dominant negative mutation in the RAC2 gene causing decreased Rac2 protein expression and a defect in a signaling pathway controlling shape change/motility of neutrophils as well as assembly and activation of NADPH [orpha.net]

Etiology The primary cause of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) remains unknown despite 40 years of research. Part of the problem is the heterogeneity of the disease. Genetic factors may be involved. [emedicine.medscape.com]
