Bruton’s Agammagobulinemia, it is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by the decrease or absence of B lymphocytes and as a consequence a decrease in immunoglobulins in peripheral blood, which predisposes to recurrent infections. Three clinical cases of patients who were diagnosed at the Manuel Ascencio Villarroel Children’s Hospital in Cochabamba with recurrent respiratory and gastrointestinal infections requiring hospitalization are presented. With this background, immunological and genetic tests were performed for diagnosis.

Palavras-chave : Agammaglobulinemia; B lymphocytes; immunodeficiency; X chromosome.
