Joe,
We saw a patient with AT and lymphoid interstitial pneumonitis that looked like PCP.

Subject: [CIS-PAGID] AT patients with T-cell deficiency

Colleagues:

I follow a number of Ataxia Telangietasia patients, and several have low T-cell numbers (e.g. CD4+ ~400), normal mitogen responses, but no antigen-specific lymphoproliferative responses.

Have any of you had AT patients who have developed opportunistic infections such as Pneumocystis pneumonia, disseminated mycobacterial disease, or disseminated CMV disease?
