Abstract

chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a human IEI caused by mutations in genes encoding the NADPH oxidase subunits, the enzyme responsible for the respiratory burst. CGD patients have severe life-threatening infections, hyperinflammation and immune dysregulation. recently, an additional autosomal recessive AR-CGD (type 5) caused by mutations in CYBC1/EROS gene was identified.We report a AR-CGD5 patient with a novel loss of function (LOF) homozygous deletion c.8_7del in the CYBC1 gene including the initiation ATG codon that leads to failure of CYBC1/EROS protein expression and presenting with an unusual clinical manifestation of childhood-onset sarcoidosis-like disease requiring multiple immuno-suppressive therapies. we described an abnormal gp91phox protein expression/function in the patient's neu-trophils and monocytes (about 50%) and a severely compromised B cell subset (gp91phox < 15%; DHR+ < 4%). our case-report emphasized the importance of considering a diagnosis of AR-CGD5 deficiency even in absence of typical clinical and laboratory findings.
