[CIS PIDD] [cis-pidd] Neutropenia and low interferon gamma production

[Wiens, Lynn A MD]

I am taking care of a 2 yo male with idiopathic neutropenia doing well
on Neupogen.  As part of his work-up, I obtained T-cell function and PHA
did upregulate CD 69 but there was no interferon gamma production.  In
vitro proliferation to tetanus toxoid, viral mixture, candida was low.
Response to PWM; staph superantigen was normal.  

My question is what additional genetic testing is indicated in a boy
doing well with neupogen; no additional infections since starting.
