Abstract(Please copy/paste the abstract send to the congress) : Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders, characterized by increased susceptibility to recurrent severe infections, autoimmune diseases, lymphoproliferation and malignancies. There are more than 300 different types of PIDs have been identified; among them different patterns of inheritance have been recognized. Autosomal recessive (AR) pattern is the most common form of inheritances, particularly in the region with high rate of consanguinity. It has been estimated that overall percentage of consanguineous marriages is as high as 20%-50% in the Middle East and North and West Africa regions, which could lead to higher rate of autosomal recessive disorders, including PIDs with autosomal inheritance. Current available reports from the registries of the countries in the Middle East and North Africa showed higher frequency of autosomal recessive PIDs, especially combined PIDs and phagocytic defects, in comparison with antibody deficiencies which are more common in the western countries. It should also be highlighted that several novel PIDs that have been described during last decade inherited in autosomal recessive patterns and the described patients had origin from the countries with high rate of consanguinity.

Please give a briefing of your own observations and outcomes of the congress: : It was a good start for fruitful collaboration in the near future The Latin American Group for Immunodeficiencies (LAGID) was established in 1993 to study the frequency of Primary Immunodeficiencies in the different regions of Latin America and to foster the understanding of the basis of these disorders throughout the medical community, including internists, pediatricians, allergists, and immunologists. Previous LASID meetings in Cartagena, Mexico, Santiago, and Buenos Aires have been successful, reflecting the exponential growth of our society. The current LASID meeting edition is a result of this productive and well succeed history and now will outreach and include professionals from all over the world.
