Dear Pere and Juan, good afternoon

As you previouly thought, I also thought in AK2 and ADA deficiency.
Nevertheless, ADA deficiency is not usually associated to myeloid cells cytopenia s.
As AK2 deficiency is associated to sensorineural deafness, despite the low age of the patient, could be interesting to screen for deafness in the patient, and to get a stem cell donor for early transplantation.

Best regards,

Dewton

> CASE REPORT:



> AAE, male. BD: 5th September 2013, now 5 weeks of age.

> At the 3 rd day of life fever (38.5ºC) à Blood and CSF cultures

> yielded : E. coli. TLC: 90-200 leucocytes/mm3 (68% PMN, 27%Lymph).

> Platelets 34,000/mm3 (normalized afterwards), Hb 6.8 g/dl. Normal

> triglyceride and fibrinogen levels. Ferritin 804 ng/ml (after blood
