Disease or Syndrome
Immunodeficiency-117 (IMD117) is an autosomal recessive immunologic disorder characterized by increased susceptibility to disseminated mycobacterial infection apparent in early childhood. Affected individuals develop mycobacterial disease after BCG (bacille Calmette-Guerin) vaccination and show increased susceptibility to other mycobacterial infections, such as M. avium. Immunologic workup shows impaired development of myeloid and lymphoid cell subsets that secrete and respond to gamma-interferon (IFNG; 147570) (et al., 2023).
