Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Individual IEI are rare, IEIs as a group are not, and they represent a significant health burden. The updated classification of Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI), encompassing a total of 555 IEIs, and 17 phenocopies due to mutations in 504 different genes. IEIs are currently categorized into 10 categories, with overlapping phenotypes. These categories are Combined immunodeficiencies, Combined immunodeficiencies with syndromic features, Predominantly antibody deficiencies, Diseases of immune dysregulation, Congenital defects of phagocytes, Defects in intrinsic and innate immunity, Autoinflammatory diseases, Complement deficiencies, Bone Marrow Failure, and Phenocopies of inborn errors of immunity.
IEIs present clinically as increased susceptibility to infections, autoimmunity, autoinflammation, allergy, bone marrow failure, and/or malignancy. IEI is to be suspected if there is recurrent or opportunistic infections, organ specific inflammation, autoimmunity, or continuous systemic immune activation and/or benign or malignant, potentially virally induced lymphoproliferation or tumors are seen together, in various combinations.
The skin is an organ of great importance at the immunological level and is commonly affected in IEI. Although infections are the most common cutaneous finding in IEI patients, noninfectious skin diseases are also quite frequent among those patients. These include allergic, inflammatory autoimmune, and malignant manifestations. Also, pigmentary changes, angioedema, urticaria, vasculitis along with nonspecific findings of eczema, erythroderma, granuloma, and ectodermal dysplasia are among the early presenting symptoms in IEI.
Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) patients present with severe, recurrent viral and bacterial infections as well as opportunistic infections very early in life (before 6 months of age). IEI is associated with atopy commonly include severe atopic dermatitis as a distinctive characteristic of the disease due to an immune dysregulation that affects skin barrier function.
To the best of our knowledge, data about the cutaneous manifestations of IEI among patients attending Assiut university Children Hospital are lacking. Thus, the goal of this study is to describe the clinical characteristics of the skin manifestations of pediatric patients diagnosed with IEI, this may deepen the knowledge and increase awareness of physicians about alarming cutaneous finding for IEI, aiding in earlier diagnosis and better management of those patient.
