<p>Combined immunodeficiency disease is a hereditary disease that evolves from the time of birth till the appearance of signs and symptoms at the age of six months specifically due to a weakened immune system and attack of infectious agents like bacteria, fungi, viruses, protozoans etc. An eight-year-old male child was admitted to the Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Soura, Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir repeatedly for intravenous administration of immunoglobulin. He was suffering from primary and combined immunodeficiency disease which is a rare condition that affects lymphocytes and leads to the weakening<br>of the immune system. The patient was unable to defend his body from opportunistic infections. He was a child born to a consanguineous couple having birth order three. The impact of this disease was not only on the patient but on the family as well. The family was drained economically and mentally. This disease is not curable and can be managed only with palliative/ supportive care and with each passing day, the disability of the patient was increasing.</p> <p>How to cite this article:<br>Jogi S M, Amin N.
