Primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs) are a group of disorders that impair the immune system's ability to fight off infections and diseases. They are caused by inherited or genetic defects and can lead to an increased susceptibility to infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain types of cancers. Early detection of these disorders through tests like the Primary Immunodeficiency Work-Up-1 is essential for prompt treatment and improved patient outcomes.
