Case 8

 An eight months old female child was brought to pediatric OPD with complaints of fever and recurrent ear discharge. On examination, there was otitis media and also lower respiratory tract infection. The weight of the child was below its age group. The mother gave a similar history to her elder son during infancy. The physician advised quantitative evaluation of serum Immunoglobulins, and prescribed antibiotics and antipyretics, and assured the mother that child will spontaneously recover after the age of 2-6 years.

What is probable immunodeficiency disorder in this child? 

Comments

  1. Immunodeficiency disorder may be transient hypogamma globulinemia.
    In this disease , delayed maturation & onset of normal IgG synthesis occur.
    Due to decreased immunity , there is more chances of recurrent infection such as otitis media, and Loer respiratory tract infection as in patient.
    This disorder can resolve after the age of 2-6 yrs.

  2. Transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy (THI) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by a transitory drop of the levels of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in an infant beginning between 5 and 24 months of age. Levels typically return to reference range at ages 2 to 6 years.
    These levels usually increase to the reference range by age 2–6 years in children with THI.

    The probable immunodeficiency disorder in the child can be TRANSIENT HYPOGAMMA GLOBULINEMIA.

    Transient hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy (THI) is a transitory immunodeficiency of childhood characterized by low IgG levels.

    THI typically presents during the first year of life with recurrent upper and lower respiratory tract infections.

    Atopy is a common manifestation.

    The primary differential diagnoses include X-linked agammaglobulinemia and common variable immunodeficiency.

    The diagnosis of THI confirmed retrospectively when IgG levels have returned to expected levels.

  6. Transient hypogamma globulinemia

    Can be resolved after 2-6 years of age.caused by transient drop in immunoglobulin g in infants ageing between 5montha to 24 months.secondsry infection due to decreased immunity.

    *abnormal delay in initiation of IgE synthesis in some infants.
    *maternal IgE is slowly catabolised in newborn and reaches 200mg/100 ml by 2 nd month.
    *delay in synthesis of its own IgE by this age, immunodeficiency occurs.

  14. hypogammaglobulinemia of infancy
    This occurs due to an abnormal delay in the initiation of synthesis lgG (or some time IgA or IgM)
    lgG synthesis usually starts by 2 months of age. But in some infants, it is delayed leading to defect in opsonization or complement activation resulting in recurrent otitis media and respiratory infections.

    Immunodeficiency disorder may be transient hypogamma globinemia.
    Caused due to drop in level of immunoglobulin G(IgG)
    In an infant.
    Decreased immunity there is more chances of recurrent infection such as otitis media and lower respiratory tract infection.

IgG is produced at low levels by the fetus, and it is the only immunoglobulin to cross the placenta.Due to decreased immunity, there is more chances of recurrent infection such as otitis media, can lower respiratory tract infection patient.

    Probable diagnosis in this child is transient hypogammaglobinemia of infancy (THI).

    it occurs because there is decreased level of IgG in infant during 5 to 24 months of age. Hence there are recurrent infections. This disorder resolves after age of 2-6 yrs of age when IgG level increases to reference range.
