摘要

1. Introduction Primary' immunodeficiency (PID) is a rare cause of hypogammaglobulinemia. The commonest cause of PID in the elderly is Good's syndrome (GS). PID is frequently associated with diarrhea [1]. However, in the absence of an established diagnosis of PID and in the presence of sole chronic diarrhea at presentation, diagnosis can be challenging. 2. Case report A previously healthy 63 year-old woman presented after three months of diarrhea and 13 kg weight loss. At presentation, stools were negative for bacterial and parasitological growth. Endoscopy revealed pancolitis with scanty erosions. Histology showed chronic inflammation with lymphocytes, plasma cells, histiocytes, eosinophils and neutrophil infiltration extending to submucosa, cryptitis, rare criptic abscesses and some epithelioid granuloma, considered suggestive of Crohn's disease (CD). Budesonide 9 mg and azathioprine 150 mg were started without clinical improvement. Three months later, CMVPCR were 28,000 copies/mL and stools were positive for Clostridium difficile toxins. Further cultures revealed Escherichia coli and Enterobacter faecaiis in urine and Campylobacter jejuni in stools. Moreover, a subcutaneous abscess was drained from the left leg. Chest CT revealed a mediastinal mass considered suggestive of thyroid struma. She was treated with both valganciclovir and levofloxacin ev, and oral vancomycin. Because of persistence of diarrhea and appearance of fever, she was admitted to the Gastroenterology Unit. At admission, objective exam was negative.
