Abstract
Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are a wide group of rare disorders. In spite of
the set up of warning criteria, a practical approach for suspect and diagnosis is still difficult.
Based on few exemplar clinical cases and on the review of our experience, we propose
some practical hints for suspecting and diagnosing PIDs in different age groups.
