Immmunodeficiencies and autoimmune diseases: Common variable immunodeficiency and Crohn-like

Abstract: Common variable immunodeficiency (CVI) gives a major risk of principally respiratory and digestive infections. It is associated with autoimmune diseases, granulomatous process and neoplasias. The digestive clinic is common, in 10% of patients it is the only symptom, and 60 % present chronic diarrhea. Clinically it can be confused and related with other pathologies such as inflammatory bowel disease which is infrequent (2-13%). We present the case of a patient with CVI with digestive symptoms being diagnosed of… Show more

“…Treatment of non-infectious GI disease in CVID includes corticosteroids, elimination of bacterial overgrowth with antibiotics, 5-aminosalicylic acid, 6-mercaptopurine, and azathioprine [ 301 , 311 , 312 ]. Besides, several groups reported substantial efficacy of targeted biological therapies, including anti-TNF-α drugs (infliximab and adalimumab), and the anti-IL−12/IL−23 monoclonal antibody ustekinumab [ 297 , 305 , 313 , 314 , 315 , 316 , 317 ]. Vedolizumab, an inhibitor of α4β7integrin, was also used in CVID-enteropathy, although with different results [ 93 , 318 ].…”

“…Steroid therapy was the most frequently reported treatment regimen for granulomatous disease in CVID ( Tables 5 and 6). For CVID+EGD, steroid monotherapy was the most frequently reported regimen (21 of 53 treatment courses), with 85.7% of treatment courses scored as effective ( Table 5) (17,19,20,(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40). For CVID+PGD, steroid monotherapy also was the most frequently reported treatment regimen (15 of 64 treatment courses); 66.7% of these treatment courses were associated with remission of granulomatous disease (Table 6) (29,(41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50).…”

“…De acordo com a literatura, 2 a 13% dos pacientes com ICV apresentam DII associada, tendo como principais manifestações clínicas diarreia crônica, má absorção intestinal e perda de peso, sintomas apresentados pelo paciente deste relato. Além disso, o diagnóstico de DC geralmente é realizado anos após o diagnóstico de ICV, o que foi observado neste caso e em oito dos 11 artigos revisados [9]. Entre os 11 pacientes da literatura que apresentavam ICV e DC, 10 eram igualmente do sexo masculino, sendo necessários estudos adicionais que busquem a justificativa para essa distribuição epidemiológica.…”

“…Quanto ao tratamento da DC, somente dois dos 11 pacientes da literatura tiveram melhora dos sintomas gastrointestinais com uso isolado de corticoide sistêmico, sendo a prednisona o fármaco de escolha [13,14]. Um paciente faleceu antes do início do tratamento [15] e os outros oito pacientes só obtiveram melhora clínica após associações diversas de corticoide, aminossalicilatos (sulfassalazina ou mesalazina) [12], antineoplásico (6-mercaptopurina) [11], imunomoduladores (azatioprina) [16] e anti-TNF alfa (infliximabe ou adalimumabe) [3,9,17], sendo que a associação de infliximabe e azatioprina foi benéfica em dois de oito casos, sem necessidade de uso concomitante de corticoide sistêmico [4,18].…”
