The mycoplasmas we described in XLA are  very difficult to culture and require antibiotics that are not routinely used, eg, doxycycline. Our approach is when cultures appear sterile, think mycoplasma

Thank you Robert - the comments are very helpful.  He is also HLA B27(-).  He has not responded to chronic NSAID therapy.  I will certainly push harder to rule out infectious issues - we only did some routine cultures of synovial fluid in the past.

Several years ago Joe Church reported a case of HLA B27(-) enthesitis in a young man with XLA which responded beautifully to chronic NSAID therapy.  I encountered a very similar case recently: recurrent hospital admissions for suspected septic arthritis involving the knees and ankles, cultures and Ureaplasma PCR uniformly negative.  No recurrences since starting daily naproxen 6 months ago.

Hope that helps.

Dear Colleagues,


I have a now 5 year old young man with XLA.  He originally had a history of recurrent OM and C.diff as well as occasional neutropenia.  He was referred for right knee swelling suggestive of JIA.   Based on his history additional studies documented data diagnostic of XLA.  No B cells.  Pan-hypogammaglobulinemia.  BTK expression studies and genetic analyses were done as well.  A hemizygous variant in BTK was documented.  I placed him on Hizentra and he has done wonderfully.  His arthritis also seemed to get better - he also had some corticosteroid injections.  More recently, he has developed a more significant flare of his JIA - more joints (wrists, knee, ankle, etc.).  We were going to use a anti-TNF agent (e.g. Humira or Enbrel).   I was wondering if anyone has any words of wisdom / caution in this setting given the risk of enterovirus issues, neutropenia....   any other suggested agents that would be excellent.


Thanks as always!


Dave
