Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease
Granulomatous–lymphocytic interstitial lung disease (GLILD) is a lung complication of common variable immunodeficiency disorders (CVID). It is seen in approximately 15% of patients with CVID. It has been defined histologically as the presence of (non-caseating) granuloma and lymphoproliferation in the lung. However, as GLILD is often associated with other auto-immune features such as splenomegaly, adenopathy and cytopenias, a definition based on abnormalities on lung imaging (CT scan) together with evidence of granulomatous inflammation elsewhere has also been employed.
