Pulmonary manifestations are common in LRBA deficiency. Respiratory characteristics in LRBA-deficient patients should be investigated, monitored, and treated from the time of diagnosis. What is Known: • Lipopolysaccharide-responsive beige-like anchor (LRBA) deficiency is a syndrome of primary immune deficiency and immune dysregulation. • Studies concerning the pulmonary characteristics of LRBA-deficient patients are lacking. What is New: • Respiratory manifestations include infections, bronchiectasis, interstitial lung disease, thoracic lymphadenopathy, and clubbing. • Awareness to pulmonary morbidity in LRBA-deficient patients and involvement of a pulmonologist in the workup and clinical decision-making is important. • Respiratory characteristics in LRBA-deficient patients should be investigated, monitored, and treated from a young age.
