I am pretty sure that Erwin Gelfand published a case report of this combination in the late 1970's or early 1980's.

Dear Colleagues,

Have any of you seen the coexistence of CF and CVID?  I will be seeing a 10y/o diagnosed at 5 years of age with CF (compound heterozygous pathogenic mutations).  She had recurrent lung and sinus disease leading up to the diagnosis.  She has no pancreatic exocrine dysfunction per pulmonary. Because of continuing lung infections that seemed out of proportion, she had an immune evaluation demonstrating IgG (low 300s mg/dl), IgM, and IgA 2SD below lower limit of normal. Normal vaccine titers to protein antigens but poor response to polysaccharide (pneumovax).  She was started on SCIG.

Reviewing the literature, I find reports of hypogammaglobulinemia in CF patients but it has genereally been attributed to poor nutrition or hypothesized poor mucosal antigen presentation.

Wondering if anyone has seen this in their practice and if so what was the clinical course?
