Good syndrome (GS) refers to a constellation of thymoma and adult-onset immunodeficiency characterized by low or absent B cells, hypogammaglobulinemia, and variable defects in cell-mediated immunity with an inverted CD4/CD8(+) T-cell ratio. Patients may develop severe or chronic infections as a result of this immunodeficiency.
