Common variable immunodeficiency is a heterogeneous condition characterized by B cell dysfunction with reduced serum immunoglobulin levels and a highly variable spectrum of clinical manifestations ranging from recurrent infections to autoimmune disease. The diagnosis of CVID is often challenging due to the diverse clinical presentation of patients and the existence of multiple diagnostic criteria without a universally adopted consensus. Laboratory evaluation to assist with diagnosis currently includes serum immunoglobulin testing, immunophenotyping, assessment of vaccine response, and genetic testing. Additional emerging techniques include investigation of the B cell repertoire and the use of machine learning algorithms. Advances in our understanding of common variable immunodeficiency will ultimately contribute to earlier diagnosis and novel interventions with the goal of improving prognosis for these patients.
