Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial Disease describes a spectrum of inherited defects, of which complete deficiency of the interleukin-12 receptor β subunit 1 (IL-12Rβ1) is the most common cause. This condition results in a predisposition to severe disease caused by mycobacteria. We report a case of disseminated multidrug-resistant tuberculosis with extensive central nervous system affection with SARS-CoV-2 co-infection, in a 4-year-old child with IL-12Rβ1 complete deficiency.
孟德尔易感性分枝杆菌病描述了一系列遗传性缺陷,其中白细胞介素-12 受体 β 亚基 1(IL-12Rβ1)完全缺失是最常见的原因。这种情况导致对由分枝杆菌引起的严重疾病的易感性。我们报告了一例伴有 SARS-CoV-2 合并感染的 IL-12Rβ1 完全缺失的 4 岁儿童的播散性耐多药结核伴广泛中枢神经系统受累的病例。
