Immune system disorders may result in recurrent and unusual infections, or inflammation and dysfunction of the body's own tissues. The dysfunction may be due to problems in antibody production, impaired cell-mediated immunity, a combined type of antibody/cellular deficiency, impaired phagocytosis, or complement deficiency.ī.
