SCIg was the preferred treatment mode over IVIg in our cohort, but both were well tolerated without any systemic adverse events in 4-year follow up. The dosage and serum IgG levels were stable throughout. However, the number of infections requiring hospitalization fluctuated. It is anticipated that these findings encourage more hospitals to offer SCIg for SID patients.
