Abstract 


Humoral immunodeficiencies have a recognized association with atopy. This study investigated the association of a T-cell disorder (chromosome 22q11.2 deletion) and a neutrophil disorder [chronic granulomatous disease (CGD)] with asthma, eczema, and rhinitis using a standardized survey instrument. Patients were recruited from either a national referral center (chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome) or from a registry (CGD). Controls consisted of siblings of patients. Chromosome 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (DiGeorge syndrome/velocardiofacial syndrome) was found to be significantly associated with both eczema and asthma but not allergic rhinitis. CGD was not found to be significantly associated with atopic diseases.
