ABSTRACT
Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) encompass a group of disorders with a strong genetic component. Prompt and accurate diagnosis of these disorders is essential for effective clinical management. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has significantly enhanced the diagnostic process by offering a comprehensive and scalable approach for identifying genomic variations causal for these disorders. Nevertheless, the bioinformatics analysis of NGS data poses several challenges. In this review, we explore these challenges and share our insights on addressing them, aiming to improve the overall diagnostic yield.
