Primary immunodeficiencies involve multiple branches of the immune system, and defects may predispose to recurrent upper and lower respiratory infections by common pathogens; opportunistic infections; and autoimmune, inflammatory, and malignant processes that may result in interstitial pneumonias. Secondary immunodeficiencies may result from neoplasms or their treatment, organ transplant and immunosuppression, and from autoimmune diseases and their treatments. Primary and secondary immunodeficiencies and their pulmonary manifestations may be difficult to diagnose and treat. A multidisciplinary approach to evaluation is essential.Congenital bronchopulmonary malformations are relatively common and arise during various periods of morphogenesis. Although some are isolated or sporadic occurrences, others may result from single gene mutations or cytogenetic imbalances. Single gene mutations have been identified, which are etiologically related to primary pulmonary hypoplasia, lung segmentation defects as well as pulmonary vascular and lymphatic lesions. Functional defects in cystic fibrosis, primary ciliary dyskinesias, alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency, and surfactant proteins caused by gene mutations may result in progressive pulmonary disease. This article provides an overview of pediatric pulmonary disease from a genetic perspective.As an East-Asian international study, we evaluated erythrocyte alloimmunity by gender and history of transfusion or pregnancy. In total, data from more than 1,826,000 patients were analyzed, from whom 26,170 irregular erythrocyte antibodies were detected in 22,653 cases. Antibody frequencies in these cases were as follows anti-E, 26.8%; anti-Lea, 20.0%; anti-P1, 7.1%; anti-M, 6.4%; anti-Mia, 5.6%; anti-c + E, 5.6%; anti-Leb, 4.6%; anti-D, 2.8%; anti-Fyb, 2
