Abstract
Primary immunodeficiencies (PID) occur more often than we used to think. Due to the low awareness of physicians about this disease, from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis patients are difficult path, often measured in years. In PID adults the most common is humoral immunity disorder. Given the wide range of clinical phenotypes of the disease, immunologist may be far from the GP during diagnosis. The article presents a case of a patient with common variable immune deficiency, that was masked under the brain tumor.
