  • The study focuses on long-term follow-up of 18 pediatric and adult patients with hypomorphic DCLRE1C mutations diagnosed with leaky severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID).
  • Common clinical manifestations included recurrent infections, skin issues, autoimmune diseases, and malignancy, with a significant number of patients showing low immunoglobulin levels and T/B-cell lymphopenia.

  • Identifying PAD requires recognizing clinical red flags like family history and unusual infections, as conventional lab tests are inadequate for definitive diagnosis.
  • Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enhances diagnostic efficiency and accuracy, but requires careful interpretation and collaboration among specialists to effectively manage PAD cases.
