IKBKG-related immunodeficiency with or without ectodermal dysplasia

IKBKG-related immunodeficiency with or without ectodermal dysplasia

Definition

Any recessive immunodeficiency (ID), with or without ectodermal dysplasia (EDA), in which the cause of the disease is mutation in the IKBKG gene. ID/EDA-ID patients, always males, are hemizygous for an IKBKG (NEMO) mutation that preserves residual NF-κB activation (hypomorphic mutations) and may also present with osteopetrosis and lymphoedema (OL-EDA-ID).

Also known as NEMO related ID/EDA-ID — per MONDO
