Previous classification system for SCID was based upon the presence of molecular defects affecting T cell numbers and presence or absence of defects affecting B and/or NK cell numbers, and SCID syndromes were classified as T-B+NK+, T-B+NK-, T-B-NK+, or T-B-NK- regardless of the functional status of these cells, since genetic diagnosis was more difficult to establish meanwhile, the mutated genes responsible for the majority of patients with SCID are known and can be readily defined. Then, it is more acceptable to classify SCID based upon the particular molecular defect once it is detected, especially the genotype can affect treatment  methods and mesuarments for post treatment complications.

Overview

Historical Perspective

Classification

Previous classification system for SCID was based upon the presence of molecular defects affecting T cell numbers and presence or absence of defects affecting B and/or NK cell numbers, and SCID syndromes were classified as T-B+NK+, T-B+NK-, T-B-NK+, or T-B-NK- regardless of the functional status of these cells, since genetic diagnosis was more difficult to establish meanwhile, the mutated genes responsible for the majority of patients with SCID are known and can be readily defined. Then, it is more acceptable to classify SCID based upon the particular molecular defect once it is detected, especially the genotype can affect treatment methods and mesuarments for post treatment complications.
