Transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy is a form of hypogammaglobulinemia appearing after birth, leading to a reduction in the level of IgG, and also sometimes IgA[cite web |url=http://www.merck.com/mmpe/sec13/ch164/ch164m.html |title=Transient Hypogammaglobulinemia of Infancy: Immunodeficiency Disorders: Merck Manual Professional |accessdate=2008-03-01 |format= |work=] and IgM.][cite journal |author=Kiliç SS, Tezcan I, Sanal O, Metin A, Ersoy F |title=Transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy: clinical and immunologic features of 40 new cases |journal=Pediatr Int |volume=42 |issue=6 |pages=647–50 |year=2000 |pmid=11192522 |doi= |url=http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/openurl?genre=article&sid=nlm:pubmed&issn=1328-8067&date=2000&volume=42&issue=6&spage=647] (The ratios of immunoglobulins vary rapidly in all infants, and the term dysgammaglobulinemia, although theoretically applicable, isn't usually used in this context.)]It can result in increased infections, but it can also present without symptoms.[cite journal |author=Hsueh KC, Chiu HH, Lin HC, Hsu CH, Tsai FJ |title=Transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy presenting as Staphylococcus aureus sepsis with deep neck infection |journal=J Microbiol Immunol Infect |volume=38 |issue=2 |pages=141–4 |year=2005 |pmid=15843860 |doi= |url=http://www.jmii.org/content/abstracts/v38n2p141.php] ]References
