Good Morning!

I am writing on behalf of some colleagues who are hoping to identify more patients with a similar phenotype to one for which they have recently identified a novel gene mutation and mechanism of disease.
The patient is a 7-year-old Turkish male born to consanguineous parents with recurrent respiratory infections, pneumatoceles, elevated IgE in the 600s, and mild hepatosplenomegaly. His infection history is notable for recurrent sinopulmonary infections starting around 3 months of age. He has significant bilateral pneumatoceles, and his lung imaging is similar to what we see in our Job’s syndrome patients, but his STAT3 testing is normal. He has no atopic manifestations. Other family history is remarkable for a paternal aunt who passed away from varicella at 4 months of age and another paternal aunt who passed away at 2 years of age from unknown causes. Maternal family history is unknown. Overall, his labs are unremarkable with the exception of the elevated IgE level.
 If anyone has any patients with a similar phenotype I know my colleagues would be very interested, and I would be happy to facilitate further discussions.

Thank you!
Jenna Bergerson
