Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Lymphopenia (also called lymphocytopenia) is a disorder in which your blood doesn’t have enough white blood cells called lymphocytes. Lymphocytes play a protective role in your immune system. There are three types of lymphocytes. All lymphocytes help protect you from infection, but they have different functions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Lymphocytopenia is a total lymphocyte count of < 1000/mcL ( 1 × 109/L) in adults or < 3000/mcL (< 3 × 109/L) in children < 2 years. Sequelae include opportunistic infections and an increased risk of malignant and autoimmune disorders.
