Abstract (English): Background: Secondary immunodeficiency (SID) is a disorder in which the immune system is compromised by external or acquired factors, reducing the quantity or function of immunoglobulins. This condition increases the need for specialist consultation, follow-up, and replacement therapy, which in turn raises healthcare costs. To date, few studies have clinically characterized patients with SID; therefore, understanding their profile will enable improved management and treatment. Objective: To describe the clinical profile of patients with SID receiving human immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IgG-RT). Material and methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted through the review of 40 medical records of patients with SID undergoing IgG-RT. Risk factors and the benefits of replacement therapy were analyzed. Results: The mean age was 48 years, with a predominance of women (62.5%). The most frequent conditions were rheumatologic diseases (38%), followed by hematologic disorders (31%) and protein-losing diseases (27%). All patients had received corticosteroids in combination with another immunosuppressant, and 77.5% had also been treated with rituximab. Infections were recorded in 50% of cases; however, only 35% received prophylaxis. Relapse was documented in 22.5% of patients, and mortality was 2.5%. Conclusions: The use of corticosteroids and immunosuppressants, specifically rituximab, was the main cause of SID, predominantly associated with rheumatologic and hematologic diseases.

Abstract (Spanish): Introducción: la inmunodeficiencia secundaria (SID) es un trastorno en el que el sistema inmunológico se ve comprometido por factores externos o adquiridos, reduciendo la cantidad o la función de las inmunoglobulinas. Esta condición incrementa la necesidad de interconsulta, seguimiento y terapia sustitutiva, lo que a su vez eleva los costos en salud. A la fecha, existen pocos estudios que caractericen clínicamente a los pacientes con SID; por ello, conocer su perfil permitirá un mejor abordaje y tratamiento. Objetivo: describir el perfil clínico de pacientes con SID que reciben terapia sustitutiva con inmunoglobulina humana (IgG-RT). Material y métodos: se realizó un estudio observacional retrospectivo mediante la revisión de 40 expedientes clínicos de pacientes con SID en tratamiento con IgG-RT. Se analizaron factores de riesgo y los beneficios de la terapia sustitutiva. Resultados: la edad promedio fue de 48 años, con predominio de mujeres (62.5%). Las patologías más frecuentes fueron las reumatológicas (38%), seguidas de las hematológicas (31%) y las enfermedades perdedoras de proteínas (27%). Todos los pacientes habían recibido corticoesteroides en combinación con otro inmunosupresor, y el 77.5% también había sido tratado con rituximab. Se registraron infecciones en el 50% de los casos; sin embargo, solo el 35% recibió profilaxis. Se documentó recaída en el 22.5% de los pacientes y una mortalidad del 2.5%. Conclusiones: el uso de corticoesteroides e inmunosupresores, específicamente rituximab, constituyó la principal causa de SID, asociada predominantemente a enfermedades reumatológicas y hematológicas.
