PRIMARY ANTIBODYDEFICIENCY(PAD)&BRONCHIECTASIS(UKPIN / BTS GUIDELINES)
BRONCHIECTASIS A destructive lung disease characterised by: • Abnormal & permanent dilatation of medium sized bronchi • An associated, persistent and variable inflammatory process producing damage to bronchial elastic and muscular elements
PATHOLOGY Neutrophil proteases (acute infection in a normal or compromised host) Epithelial injury + Structural protein damage Damaged, dilated airway Mucous retention / chronic, recurrent infection Ongoing inflammation / tissue damage / repair
BRONCHIECTASIS - aetiology • Infection - pertussis, influenza, measles, TB, necrotising peumonia • Bronchial obstruction - mucoid impaction, ABPA • Congenital anatomical lung abnormality • Inherited disorders - ciliary dysfunction - cystic fibrosis - alpha-1 AT deficiency • Undefined (29 - 49%)
BRONCHIECTASISPasteur et al. Am J Respir Crit Care Med (2000) 162, 1277-1284
BRONCHIECTASIS in PAD CVID • 53% (Hausser et al 1983) • 44% (Watts et al 1986) • 18% (Hermazewski & Webster 1993) • 20% (UK PAD Audit 1993-96) • 27% (‘chronic lung disease’) (Cunningham Rundles 1999) • 58% (Garcia 2001) • 43% (Busse et al 2002) XLA • 7% (Hermazewski & Webster 1993) • 12% (UK PAD Audit 1993-96) • 20% (Quartier et al 1999)
RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS Figure 2 Types of infection in the 37 patients receiving immunoglobulin replacement treatment. The numbers of each type of infection are listed by each chart section.
DIAGNOSTIC DELAY • Average: diagnosis - 6.3 years treatment - additional 3.9 • Diagnostic delay > 2 years: risk of bronchiectasis sinusitis iron deficiency (UK PAD Audit 1993-96)3 • Strongest predictor of chronic pulmonary disease in treated patients is established lung disease at time of presentation n= XLAx10, CVIDx12 IMIg x 18, IVIg x 3, FFP x 1 (all + daily antibiotic) (Sweinberg et al 1991)3
UK PAD AUDIT 1993-96 Development of bronchiectasis following diagnosis: <1980 1981-87 >1988 77% 70% 42%
CHRONIC LUNG DISEASE in PAD Damage sustained prior to active treatment and/or Continued inflammation despite treatment
AIMS Define evidence-based guidelines relevant to: • investigation level appropriate to screen for significant antibody deficiency in all patients with bronchiectasis • diagnosis & management of bronchiectasis complicating primary antibody deficiency

DIAGNOSIS PRIMARY ANTIBODY DEFICIENCY • Humoral abnormalities are common in bronchiectasis 3 • Respiratory Physician + Immunologist 4 • Diagnosis of significant antibody deficiency should entail use ofestablished and widely accepted criteria: 4 - Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases.
