Does this patient have an immunodeficiency?

A recent publication in Clinical Medicine gives a clear concise overview of when to suspect an immunodeficiency and exactly which diagnostic tests should be used.

Dr’s A Huissoon and M T Krishna from Birmingham Heartlands Hospital, UK, describe how such patients should be managed by physicians and discuss diagnostic steps to be taken. They also introduce an interesting acronym; FISHing for immunodeficiency (Full blood count, Immunoglobulins, Serum complement, HIV testing).
