This document discusses a case presentation of a 2-year-old boy named D. George who has been brought in by his parents due to concerns about recurrent infections. The boy has a history of frequent upper respiratory infections and ear infections, and has been hospitalized twice for infections. The document provides background on primary immunodeficiency diseases and different aspects of the immune system to help evaluate the child's condition and determine if he has an immunodeficiency.
4. Case Presentation D. George is a 2 year old male brought in by his parents Wiskott and Aldrich because of concerns about recurrent infections . They state he has been sick many times over the last two years. He has been in the hospital twice with some sort of infection. He has also had frequent upper respiratory infections and has had Otitis Media 7 times in the last two years.
