X-linked agammaglobulinemia and isolated growth hormone deficiency was first described in 1980 and then classified as a different primary immune deficiency. Delayed puberty in patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia may result in delayed secretion of growth hormone (GH). To determine true isolated growth hormone deficiency. GH stimulation tests and other hypophyseal hormone evaluations must be performed. In this paper, we report a 15-year-old boy with X-linked agammaglobulinemia and isolated growth hormone deficiency, and review related literature.
X连锁无丙种球蛋白血症合并孤立性生长激素缺乏症于1980年首次被描述，随后被归类为一种不同的原发性免疫缺陷病。X连锁无丙种球蛋白血症患者的青春期延迟可能导致生长激素（GH）分泌延迟。为了确定真正的孤立性生长激素缺乏症，必须进行GH刺激试验和其他垂体激素评估。在本文中，我们报告了一名患有X连锁无丙种球蛋白血症和孤立性生长激素缺乏症的15岁男孩，并回顾相关文献。
