Job syndrome or hyper-immunoglobulin E syndrome is one of the rare immunologic diseases with only about 300 cases described in the literature until now. Given their low prevalence, our understanding of both autosomal dominant and recessive Job syndromes is still evolving. No specific treatment options are available but early diagnosis may help in treating cases prophylactically with antibiotics and wound care to reduce the patient's burden. We recently encountered a patient diagnosed with Job syndrome with autism who presented with an abscess in the right axillary region. We report this case for its rarity and unique association with developmental neurologic disorder. It is crucial to review this rare syndrome to circumvent any diagnostic delay. Following the disease course and taking all the associations into account is also vital for the clinician's understanding as well as implementing the treatment plan.
