Lung involvement in common variable immunodeficiency: from diagnosis to lung transplantation

Symposium
Chairs: F. Meloni (Pavia (PV), Italy), T. Welte (Hannover, Germany)
Aims: to describe the physiopathology of common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) and current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for this disorder and update attendees about recent advances in this context. CVID-associated lung involvement might be due to respiratory infection and bronchiectasis or non-infectious immune-based diffuse interstitial disorders. This clinical picture and the possible contraindications to lung transplant candidacy and challenges in post-transplant follow-up of these patients will be addressed.
