X-linked hypogammaglobulinemia and isolated growth hormone deficiency: an update

Donn M Stewart et al. Immunol Res. 2008.

Abstract

X-linked hypogammaglobulinemia and isolated growth hormone deficiency (XLH-GHD, OMIM # 307200) is a primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by pan-hypogammaglobulinemia and isolated growth hormone deficiency. The disease, which is only known to occur in a single family, shares many features with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA, OMIM # 300300). The current review summarizes the clinical, laboratory, and genetic features of the disease as they have unfolded over the past quarter-century since its description.
