Compound heterozygous LPIN2 pathogenic variants in a patient with Majeed syndrome with recurrent fever and severe neutropenia: case report
Abstract Background Majeed syndrome is a rare, autosomal recessive autoinflammatory disorder first described in 1989. The syndrome starts during infancy with recurrent relapses of osteomyelitis typically associated with fever, congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA), and often neutrophilic dermato...

The syndrome starts during infancy with recurrent relapses of osteomyelitis typically associated with fever, congenital dyserythropoietic anemia (CDA), and often neutrophilic dermatosis. Mutations in the LPIN2 gene located on the short arm of chromosome 18 have been identified as being responsible for Majeed syndrome. Case presentation We report an 8-month-old boy, who presented with recurrent fever, mild to moderate anemia, and severe neutropenia.

Our patient exhibited a mild clinical phenotype and severe neutropenia, different from previous reports.http://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/s12881-019-0919-3Majeed syndromeFeverNeutropeniaAutosomal recessive |
