Pyoderma Gangrenosum in a Patient with X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a primary immunodeficiency disorder caused by germline mutations of B-cell tyrosine kinase (BTK) gene. It is characterized by decreased serum immunoglobulins levels and circulating mature B cells. This defect in humoral immunity leads to increased susceptibility to infection. Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is an uncommon, ulcerating, neutrophilic dermatosis. Here...

X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) has been described as a disorder in which pre-B cells fail to differentiate into B cells. However, a small number of B cells have been seen occasionally in patients with this disorder. Because the phenotype of these cells might be helpful in defining the site of the defect in XLA, immunofluorescent staining techniques were used to characterize the B cells that ...

The outcome of fusariosis in the context of severe persistent neutropaenia has been almost universally fatal. The treatment of fusariosis in immunocompromised patients remains a challenge and the prognosis of systemic fusariosis in this population remains poor. This re...
