Common variable immunodeficiency disease is a condition in which there is a deficiency of immunoglobulin A (IgA) and/or immunoglobulin G (IgG). This makes the patient more susceptible to infections. Symptoms usually appear in adolescence or adulthood, and it is not invariably fatal. It can be inherited as an autosomal recessive trait in some cases.
