Dear all,
if you want to get fancy the lack of Th17 would point towards HIES
(STAT3 and Dock8) and the lack of Tregs would point towards IPEX.
Certainly both belong to the dd in this chap.
Yours,

> I have a question about a 4 mo old boy with chronic diarrhea, eczema, hyper IgE and eosinophilia. This is a pt of my colleagues, I already gave them my opinion but I also want to discuss the case with you all for further advice.

> This is a 4 mo old boy without any significant family history for PID. He developed generalized mild eczema at the age of 1 mo and developed diarrhea at 2 mo old. At 3 mo old, he also developed coughs. The child got hospitalzied.. they found hyper IgE and eosinophilia...rectal biopys revealed nothing.

> Diarrhea continued and respirtoary sx aggravated..BAL revealed PCP and CMV...

> They did immune work-up (see below of this email). They suspect hyper IgE...

> Followings are my questions. Is this a typical presentation of hyper IgE? I would think Staph pneumonia more in a pt with hyper IgE.

> With PCP and CMV isolated and condition being improved with treatment, I would more suspect cell mediated immunity defect (fyi, HIV was negative).

>

> How about SCID (although lympho subset looks ok) or other cellular immunity defect? or how about IPEX? maybe hyper IgE should be ruled out anyway..

> Maybe hypereosinophilic syndrome such as eosinophilic gastroenteritis? even in this condition, CMV and PCP infection cannot explain..I don't think hyepreosinophilic syndrom pt have increased susceptibility to PCP or CMV.
