Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about a medical student with an inherited inability to make antibodies. His family history revealed that he had inherited this defect in antibody synthesis as an X-linked recessive abnormality. Pyogenic bacteria are the major cause of infection in X-linked agammaglobulinemia.

by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents a case history of a patient with pemphigus vulgaris to illustrate in a clinical context essential points about the mechanisms of immunity and to explain some of the immunological problems often seen in the clinic. It is helpful for medical students and pre-medical students.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents case histories to illustrate in a clinical context essential points about the mechanisms of immunity. It includes cases that illustrate both recently discovered genetic immunodeficiencies and some more familiar and common diseases with interesting immunology.

It is helpful for medical students and pre-medical students.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents case histories to illustrate essential points about the mechanisms of immunity and to explain some of the immunological problems seen in the clinic. It is intended to help medical students and pre-medical students to understand the importance of basic immunological mechanisms.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents a case history of a patient with T-Cell lymphoma, to illustrate essential points about the mechanisms of immunity and to explain some of the immunological problems seen in the clinic. It is intended for medical students and pre-medical students.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about a 15-year-old high-school student with a specific failure of phagocytes to produce H2O2and superoxide. It outlines the details of a phenotype of X-linked chronic granulomatous disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding gp91phox.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents case histories in immunology to illustrate essential points about the mechanisms of immunity in a clinical context. The case histories describe and explain some of the immunological problems often seen in the clinic.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents a case history of a patient with lepromatous leprosy, to illustrate in a clinical context essential points about the mechanisms of immunity and to explain some of the immunological problems often seen in the clinic. It is helpful for medical students and pre-medical students.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about an autoimmune disease triggered by infection. It describes how Gwendolen Fairfax, a healthy, unmarried 34-year-old bank manager, who developed the sudden onset of fever, cough and anemia, was started on erythromycin by intravenous administration for treatment.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about fever and inflammation in the absence of infection in an infant, a week after his birth. One of the most serious long-term complications of the periodic fever syndromes is systemic amyloidosis, which occurs when misfolded fragments of serum amyloid get deposited in tissues.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about a 25-year-old male admitted into hospital for the 28th time. He was later diagnosed with a genetic deficiency in factor I that were instrumental in deciphering the mechanism of activation of the alternative pathway of complement activation important in innate immunity.

It includes cases that illustrate both recently discovered genetic immunodeficiencies and some more familiar and common diseases with interesting immunology.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about a 31-year old lady with blood group A, Rh-negative red cells, who was diagnosed for a fetus in immunological distress. Though elimination of the hemolytic disease of the newborn is possible, alloimmunization may fail in mothers even after giving them purified immunoglobulin.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents a case history of a patient with MHC class I deficiency, to illustrate essential points about the mechanisms of immunity and to explain some of the immunological problems often seen in the clinic. It is helpful for medical and pre-medical students.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study illustrates the features of a common type of myasthenia gravis, which is observed in older people and is called the oculobulbar form because it principally involves the muscles of the eye. Abnormalities of the thymus are not observed in older patients and thymectomy does not help.

It is helpful for medical students and pre-medical students.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents case histories that are chosen for two purposes: to illustrate in a clinical context essential points about the mechanisms of immunity; and to describe and explain some of the immunological problems often seen in the clinic.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about a 15-year-old high-school student with a specific failure of phagocytes to produce H2O2and superoxide. It outlines the details of a phenotype of X-linked chronic granulomatous disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding gp91phox.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis cases study illustrates how untreated bone marrow seems to provide a 'graft-versus-leukemia' reaction, which makes relapse less likely in the case of bone marrow transplants for the treatment of leukemia. GVHD is characterized by a rash, diarrhea, pneumonitis, and liver damage.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis case study is about a 6-year-old boy with recurrent pneumococcal meningitis. It provides information on an inability of the innate immune system to detect pathogen presence, and the sequencing of DNA for the IRAK4 gene that revealed a homozygous nonsense mutation within the kinase domain.
Case Studies in Immunology: A Clinical Companion
by Raif Geha FRED RosenThis book presents a case history of a patient with acute infectious mononucleosis, to illustrate in a clinical context essential points about the mechanisms of immunity; and to explain some of the immunological problems seen in the clinic. It is helpful for medical and pre-medical students.
