Abstract

Objective: In many countries worldwide, medical knowledge of PIDs remains insufficient, which leads to late diagnosis, higher morbidity, a shorter life span, and worse quality of life. This study aims to assess the level of awareness and knowledge of physicians working in Turkey about PIDs.
