Specifically, we would welcome suggestions as to whether there is a particular associated immunodeficiency or immune defect that we should be considering.  WES has been sent and is pending.  Case summary is listed below- thanks in advance for your assistance.  Amy

> 3 mo-old Asian female admitted on  1/13/17 for FTT, grossly bloody stools, anemia, and a malar rash (raised, plaques, violaceous/hemorrhagic appearance).   She has been afebrile and has not had any adenopathy or organomegaly.  She has had no other rash besides the malar area.  Multi-specialty work-up was undertaken including upper and lower endoscopy on 1/26 which showed extensive gastric ulceration as well as less ulceration in the sigmoid colon.

> IgG and M low (112.7 and 19) (felt to be due to protein loss in stool), IgA elevated 62, IgE 13, IgD<0.7
> Flow: low NK cells (1%/52) but normal T cells (CD3 80%/4656 with normal CD4, CD8, RA/RO, alpha/beta/gamma/delta) and low normal B cells (6%/314).  Thymus is normal on CT.  SCID newborn screen normal.  EBV negative.

> The working diagnosis was initially early-onset IBD (GI team consulted with experts in very early onset IBD-VEO-IBD).  Skin biopsy of worsening malar rash was performed on 2/6/17 and while path was pending  1.5 mg/kg div BID of methylprednisolone was started on 2/9/17 for presumed IBD.  Rash and bloody stools have improved dramatically on steroids though stools continue to be guaiac positive.

> Local dermatopathologists signed out skin biopsy as possible T/NK cell lymphoma on 2/17/17 at which time hem/onc was consulted.  We elected to  continue steroids due to clinical improvement at the risk of obscuring diagnostic work-up as she had already been on steroids for 8 days when hem/onc got involved.  Diagnostic work-up for lymphoma included: CT of neck through pelvis on 2/18 was negative for masses or organomegaly.  PET scan on 2/24 was negative but as noted pt had been on steroids for over a week.  CSF negative for abnl cells.  Bone marrow aspirate was negative by morphology and flow.   Re-review of original GI biopsies with new stains led pathology to feel  they were consistent with the lymphomatous process seen in the skin.

>  
> Clinically, patient has been stable throughout admission on RA with stable vital signs.  She has been on and off p.o. feeds/TPN due to mild to moderate GI bleeding.   She is gaining weight.  She was continued on 1.5mg/kg/day  until 3/5 when  a slow wean was initiated while awaiting whole genome exome sequencing results (possible results next week).  She is currently primarily managed by Hem-Onc inpatient service with multiple consulting services involved.
