Title: Respiratory failure in a 10monthold: Pursuing a diagnosis


1
Respiratory failure in a 10-month-old Pursuing
a diagnosis
  • Todd D Green
  • Childrens Hospital of Pittsburgh
  • November 4, 2007

2
Case Presentation
  • 10 mo male transferred from outside hospital
  • Admission 8 months for bilat pneumonia,
    pneumothorax
  • WBC 4.4 k/ul, ALC 1628/mm3, ANC 2288/mm3, AEC
    308/mm3
  • Resp failure, intubation, ECMO
  • BAL unremarkable (including Pneumocystis, fungal)
  • ET sputum Klebsiella, Stenotrophomonas, Serratia
  • Urine negative for CMV, adenovirus
  • EBV PCR negative
  • Negative molecular testing for CF
  • Macular rash with eosinophilia (2500/mm3)
  • Skin biopsy contact dermatitis, resolved with
    steroids

3
Case Presentation
  • PMH
  • Chronic clear rhinorrhea since 1-2 months
  • Recurrent otitis media beginning 4 months
  • PE tubes placed 7 months, continued infections
  • Rashes with azithromycin and amoxicillin
  • No chronic thrush, diarrhea, failure to thrive
  • FH
  • 4 yo brother with JRA, mat first cousin with CF
  • No consanguinity, PID, early childhood deaths

4
Case Presentation
  • Medications on admission
  • Bactrim, Zosyn, Vancomycin
  • Prednisolone
  • Methadone, diuretics, sedatives
  • Exam Ht 5th ile, Wt 5th ile, HC 25th ile
  • HEENT intubated (tonsils later visualized)
  • Nodes 2 mm node rt axilla, 3 mm node lt groin
  • Liver 4-5 cm below rcm
  • No murmur, rash

  • Differential?
  • Combined immunodeficiency
  • SCID
  • Omenns Syndrome
  • MHC I or II Antigen Deficiency
  • p56 Lck deficiency
  • DiGeorge Syndrome
  • Hyper-IgM Syndrome
  • CGD
  • CVID
  • XLP
  • XLA
  • Others

  • Further assessment
  • IgG 38 mg/dL, IgA 9 mg/dL, IgM 9 mg/dL, IgE 2
    U/mL
  • Abs lymph count 2046/mm3 (3400-9000)
  • CD3 1550/mm3 (1900-5900)
  • CD4 500/mm3 (1400-4300)
  • 33 4/45RA/62L (58-91)
  • CD8 1053/mm3 (500-1700)
  • 69 8/45RA/62L (47-87)
  • CD19 308/mm3 (610-2600)
  • Lymphocyte prolif normal to mitogens, absent
    antigens
  • Clinical course
  • Gradual recovery
  • No rash
  • 300-2700/mm3 eosinophils during 4 wk admission
  • Bone marrow biopsy nl trilineage hematopoesis, no
    malignancy
  • Home on IVIG, presumptive CVID

Follow-Up
  • Continued recurrent OM, mult sets PE tubes
  • Recurrent rhinorrhea, diarrhea, slow wt gain
  • Resolution eosinophilia, no further rash
  • Developed PCP at 15 months
  • LE thromboses during hospitalization, diagnosed
    with MTHFR gene mutation (1p36.3)
  • Generally well since
  • Recurrent nephrolithiasis with ammonium urate
    stones (unusual in US) at 31 months

Follow-up Immunologic Parameters
  • 19 months 31 months
  • ALC 4320 (3600-8900) 2695 (2300-5400)
  • CD3 2458 (2100-6200) 1730 (1400-3700
  • CD4 760 (1300-3400) 507 (700-2200)
  • CD8 1659 (620-2000) 1145 (490-1300)
  • CD48 0.46 0.44
  • CD16/56 151 (180-920) 137 (130-720)
  • CD19 1581 (720-2600) 776 (390-1400)
  • CD45RA/62L 53 of T-cells 70 of T-cells

Follow-up Immunologic Studies
  • 19 months 31 months
  • Mitogen Prolif Normal Normal
  • Antigen Prolif Absent Absent
  • IgA 0 mg/dL 0 mg/dL
  • IgM 0 mg/dL 0 mg/dL
  • IgE 4 IU/mL 5 IU/mL
  • Bacteriophage Fx-174 immunization response
    abnormal
  • No detectable antibody after primary
    immunization, but with phage clearance,
    suggesting presence of neutralizing antibody
  • Very low antibody titer after second (no IgG
    isotype)

10
Further Immunologic Workup
  • ADA, PNP activity
  • Common gamma chain sequencing (pt, mom)
  • SH2D1A sequencing
  • BTK sequencing
  • CD40Ligand sequencing
  • CH50
  • Platelet size, number
  • All normal

11
Summary
  • Now 3 3/12 yo, h/o PCP
  • Agammaglobulinemia with normal B-cells
  • Abnormal response to bacteriophage immunization
  • Low CD4 , o/w normal lymphocyte populations,
    including CD45RA/62L
  • T-cell fxn with nl mitogen prolif, absent antigen
  • Where to next?
