Roifman syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive inherited syndromic immunodeficiency. We wish to add to the available literature by reporting two brothers with clinical, radiological and immunological features of Roifman syndrome, confirmed on whole exome sequencing. We report an excellent response to subcutaneous immunoglobulin therapy in both brothers, reducing infection burden and hospital admissions. New radiological features are also described here which may assist in the diagnosis of other patients.
罗伊夫曼综合征是一种罕见的常染色体隐性遗传性综合征性免疫缺陷病。我们希望通过报告两例具有罗伊夫曼综合征临床、影像学和免疫学特征的兄弟病例,并结合全外显子测序结果,来丰富现有文献。我们报告了这两例兄弟对皮下免疫球蛋白治疗的良好反应,降低了感染负担和住院率。此外,本文还描述了一些新的影像学特征,这可能有助于其他患者的诊断。
