[CIS PIDD] MBL deficiency

Dear sir:

The other forms of partial oculocutaneous albinism w/ immunodeficiency sound like they should be on the list - LYST, AP3B1. Have you looked at hair? Flow cytometry for CD107a might help narrowing whether it's a docking issue versus a problem with granule contents.

Best,
Mike

Hyperferritinemia, hemophagocytosis, per bone marrow exam, negative cytogenetics. IL-2 receptor high. NK cell function absent. Immunoglobulins, T and B cells otherwise not indicative of broad-based primary immunodeficiency. Patient experienced respiratory failure, renal failure treated supportively for pseudomonas peritonitis and developed ecthyma gangrenosum. Responded to Dex/VP-16. + pip-tazo. Steroids weaned now monitoring coags, fibrinogen. Analyisis for PRF1, STX 11 genes, MUNC, STXBP2, RAB27 negative for known HLH mutations. CD11B and CD18 levels wnl.

Richard:

My family of three is still receiving IgG. There have been no antibiotic requiring infections during the past 2 years.

I am seeing a 43 year old female physician with a lifelong history of recurrent sinusitis, two episodes of pneumonia in the past 10 years that required ICU care (one of which sounds like septic shock), significant post-op MRSA infection after sinus surgery and a large cellulitis after stingray envenomation. Immunoglobulins are normal (IgG >1000), pneumococcal antibody titers (14 serotypes) are strongly positive (12/14 >1ug/ml, 8/14 >5ug/ml). Mannose binding lectin was not detectable.

I know that Dr. Kirkpatrick reported a family treated successfully with IGIV. Are there other suggestions for treatment? Antibiotic prophylaxis?
