Abstract:

Objective

To explore the clinical diagnostic features of chronic granulomatous disease(CGD) caused by a hemizygous mutation in the CYBB gene.

Methods

The clinical data of a child with CGD admitted to the First Hospital of Jilin University on April 30, 2021, were analyzed retrospectively, and the clinical diagnostic characteristics were summarized based on literature.

Results

The 11-year-old male patient was admitted with " intermittent fever for 22 days and double ankle pain for 5 days". The patient had a history of repeated respiratory tract infections for more than 10 years after birth, along with multiple history of infections such as skin furuncles, tuberculosis infection, liver abscess, and other infections, all of which improved after anti-infection treatment. Finally, the results of the genetic analysis proved that CGD was caused by a hemizygous mutation in the CYBB gene.

Conclusion

Clinical physicians should be watchful for CGD in children who have had recurrent respiratory tract infections since infancy and should actively discover the etiology to improve the children′s prognosis as soon as possible.
