    <abstract locale="en_US">Primary immunodeficiency (PID) is a group of more than 400 distinct genetic disorders affecting both children and adults. As signs and symptoms of PID are usually heterogeneous and unspecific, diagnosis and follow-up of these patients can be challenging based on the available human resources and laboratory facilities. In order to reach a distinct national protocol and due to little evidence to guide appropriate or universal guidelines to improve the current status of management of the disease, the Iranian PID network designed a consensus appropriate for regional resources.
