Dear all

A friend of mine is dealing with a perplexing case who has eczema,
immunodeficiency, and autoimmunity. Any suggestions for further

kgs at 10 months.He is currently on Soy based and proteinhydrolysate
formula feeds,but persisting to have loose stools

2. Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (DCT2 + )required one transfusion for severe
anemia .He is presently  on steroids (oral prednisolone)

3. Polyuria/ polydipsia multiple admission for dehydration,
dyselectrolytemia.

-Modified water deprivation test which was not conclusive of Diabetes
Insipidus

4. Immunodeficiency - has low serum IgA levels - 3mg/dl (IgG/ M/E normal)

                                     absolute CD3 CD4 and CD8 below normal

5.History of eczema at 5 months of age.Now has dermatitis and dry

anemia, had 2 spontaneous abortions, diagnosed to have APLA during this
pregnancy was treated with heparin.

Maternal grand father h/o rheumatoid arthritis

*WORK UP*:

Complete Hemogram-Hb LOW (5 g/dl at presentation)  total white cells-19300
(N67, L30, M 2, E 1) PLATELETS low normal 1.5 to 2 lac ,Mean Platelet
Volume-Normal

*Direct Coombs test ++*

Renal function tests- serum creatinine normal
