X-Linked agammaglobulinemia in a child with Klinefelter's syndrome

Alexis-Virgil Cochino et al. J Clin Immunol. 2014 Feb.

Abstract

Bruton's agammaglobulinemia is a rare X-linked humoral immunodeficiency manifesting with recurrent bacterial infections early in life. Klinefelter's syndrome caused by an additional X chromosome is the most common sex chromosome disorder. A previously unreported association of these two conditions is described here.
