ORPHA:331187Disease
What it is
Immunodeficiency due to MASP-2 deficiency is a rare, genetic immunodeficiency due to a complement cascade protein anomaly characterized by low serum levels of MASP-2 and a variable susceptibility to bacterial infections (e.g. pulmonary tuberculosis, pneumococcal pneumonia, skin abscesses and sepsis), and autoimmune diseases (e.g. inflammatory lung disease, cystic fibrosis, systemic lupus erythematosus). In many cases it remains asymptomatic.

ICD-10 codes
ICD-10 has no distinct code for most rare diseases, so many are filed under the nearest available one. A shared code identifies the group, not this disease — the ORPHAcode above is what identifies it.
