Early onset eczema seems to be a possible key feature in this child
(but you have judged Omenn syndrome, IPEX(like) syndrome and
maternal-fetal engraftment unlikely).
The Hyper IgE Syndromes (STAT3 and in this consanguineous background
also DOCK8) might be worth considering - IgE levels seem to increase in
you patient.
Also the recently described child with WIP deficiency has some parallels
with your patient (plt count? plt volume was not affected in the
reproted child). Maybe you can do WASP expression by flow?
Lanzi G et al. A novel primary human immunodeficiency due to deficiency
in the WASP-interacting protein WIP. J Exp Med 2012;209:29–34.

Best wishes, Carsten Speckmann
