Furthermore, the patient also developed subcuta...
متن کاملGenotype/phenotype correlations in X-linked agammaglobulinemia.
No clear genotype/phenotype correlations have been established in patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). To determine if the specific mutation in Btk might be one of the factors that influences the severity of disease or if polymorphic variants in Tec, a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase that might substitute for Btk, could contribute to the clinical phenotype, we examined the age at diagno...

BACKGROUND Patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) develop immune-complex induced diseases such as nephropathy only rarely, presumably because their immunoglobulin (Ig) G concentration is low. We encountered a patient with XLA who developed tubulointerstitial nephritis during treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). CASE PRESENTATION A 20-year-old man was diagnosed with XLA 3...
