The prevalence of €VID is about 1/25 000 Caucasians ( The degree and type of deficiency of serum immunoglobulins in CVID, and the clinical course, varies from patient to patient, Patients with CVID may have normal levels of serum lgM levels but decreased serum levels of immunoglobulin G (lgG) and immunoglobulin A (lgA) are characteristic.
