Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), or
Bubble Boy Syndrome, (also known as
"Alymphocytosis,"
"Glanzmann–Riniker syndrome,"
"Severe mixed immunodeficiency syndrome," and
"Thymic alymphoplasia")
is a genetic disorder in which both "arms" (B cells and T cells) of the adaptive immune system are crippled, due to a defect in one of several possible genes. SCID is a severe form of heritable immunodeficiency.
