Hyper-IgM syndrome type 3

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Classification according to ICD-10
D80.5 Immunodeficiency with increased immunoglobulin M [IgM]
ICD-10 online (WHO version 2019)

The Hyper-IgM syndrome, type 3 ( HIGM3 , Hyper-IgM syndrome by CD40 deficiency is) a special form of rare hyper-IgM syndrome , a hereditary disease with increased immunoglobulin M and simultaneously reduced to the absence of immunoglobulin G and immunoglobulin A in the blood serum .

distribution

The frequency is not known, the inheritance is done autosomal - recessive .

root cause

The disease is based on mutations in the CD140 gene at locus 20q13.12.

Clinical manifestations

The disease belongs with the hyper-IgM syndrome type 1 to the forms with increased infections , an increased tendency to infection due to the immune deficiency . In contrast to isolated immunodeficiency diseases, infections with Pneumocystis carinii often occur in this syndrome .

treatment

Treatment consists of substitution therapy .
