The quality of life of children and adolescents with X-linked agammaglobulinemia.

INTRODUCTION: The health-related quality of life in X-linked agammaglobulinemia was investigated in 25 children and adolescents patients through the Italian version of Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 Generic Core Scale for patients aged less then 18 years, comparing child perception to that of the parents and the physician's evaluation. The data were compared with the ones of 80 healthy controls and the literature data of a group of patients with rheumatic diseases.

The clinical relevance of health-related quality of life assessment in X-linked agammaglobulinemia pediatric patients is discussed.
