Primary hypergammaglobulinemic purpura associated with IgG2 deficiency. A case report

Abstract
Hypergammaglobulinemic purpura is a rare disease in children. We report a case of a 12 year-old girl with a history of frequent infections. We found the presence of IgG2 deficiency despite polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia. An IgG subclass determination should be obtained in every child with polyclonal hypergammaglobulinemia and features of immunodeficiency.
