Immune Thrombocytopenia in an Adult With X‐linked Agammaglobulinemia: A Case Report [PDF]
In patients with X‐linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), serum immunoglobulins are almost completely lacking. The prevalence of autoimmune diseases is low in XLA compared with other primary immunodeficiency diseases because antibodies are absent in XLA ...

Helicobacter trogontum Bacteremia and Lower Limb Skin Lesion in a Patient with X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia—A Case Report and Review of the Literature [PDF]
We describe the first case of infection with Helicobacter trogontum in a patient with X-linked agammaglobulinemia. A 22-year-old male with X-linked agammaglobulinemia presented with fever, malaise and a painful skin lesion on the lower left extremity ...

The dilemma of X-linked agammaglobulinemia carriers [PDF]
Background: Many patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) nowadays have reached adulthood, as well as their sisters, possibly carriers of a deleterious Bruton tyrosine kinase variant. Studies on motherhood outcomes in families with XLA are lacking.

Purulent meningitis in X-linked agammaglobulinemia: one case report [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is characterized by a triad of primary immunodeficiency, profound hypogammaglobulinemia due to absent antibody production, and a consequent predisposition to severe and recurrent bacterial infections.

Cytomegalovirus Pneumonia in a Patient with X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia: A Case Report [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a hereditary immune disorder that predisposes patients to frequent and severe bacterial infections caused by encapsulated bacteria (such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, and Haemophilus influenzae).

Co-Occurring X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia and X-Linked Chronic Granulomatous Disease: Two Isolated Pathogenic Variants in One Patient [PDF]
We present a unique and unusual case of a male patient diagnosed with two coexisting and typically unassociated X-linked conditions: he was initially diagnosed with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) followed by a diagnosis of X-linked chronic ...

Case report of renal manifestations in X-linked agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
IntroductionX-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a humoral immunodeficiency disorder characterized by recurrent infections, severe hypogammaglobulinemia, and a deficiency of circulating B cells. While the hallmark clinical manifestations of XLA typically

Naïve Regulatory T Cell Subset Is Altered in X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
The interplay between T- and B-cell compartments during naïve, effector and memory T cell maturation is critical for a balanced immune response. Primary B-cell immunodeficiency arising from X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) offers a model to explore B ...

Novel BTK Mutation in Patient with Late Diagnosis of X-Linked Agammaglobulinemia [PDF]
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a genetic disorder with mutation in Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK). Defects in B cell development and immunoglobulin production lead to recurrent infections following loss of maternal IgG at 6 months of age. A 55-year-
