“…2,3 Therefore, it is important for pediatricians to be familiar with the pulmonary manifestations of immunodeficiency diseases. While there are many studies on the pulmonary complications of children with acquired immunodeficiency [4][5][6][7] and some on children with humoral immunologic defects, 8,9 there are few studies on the pulmonary manifestations of children with congenital T-cell deficiency.…”

“…Subsequent reports clearly indicated that pulmonary and cardiac disease contributed significantly to the morbidity and mortality experienced by children with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection [5][6][7][8]. In response to the growing epidemic, the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) initiated a study designed to describe the cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders that occur in children in association with vertical transmission of HIV infection from mother…”

Recently, a spectrum of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lesions (4), multilocular thymic cysts associated with LIP (5-8) and a spectrum of pulmonary lymphoid infiltrates have been described in pediatric HIVinfected patients (1).…”

“…It has been postulated that bronchus-associated lymphoid tissue and LIP may represent a premalignant organ response to an antigenic stimulus (16) that may progress to MALT lymphoma. In addition, immune dysregulation is thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of LIP, which can be seen also in adults with autoimmune disease (2,8,17,18).…”
