Abstract

Chronic granulomatous disease is a primary immunodeficiency, characterized by a violation of the oxygen-dependent mechanisms of phagocytosis. Mutations in the genes encoding proteins of the NADPH-oxidase complex lead to a violation of the respiratory burst. Clinical manifestations are recurrent bacterial and fungal infections, and the development of granulomatous complications due to a defect in autophagy, accompanied by an increase in the level of interleukin-1 inthe blood. The treatment of this disease is continuous preventive antimicrobial therapy, and specific therapy for the treatment of granulomatous complications. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from an allogeneic or unrelated donor is currently considered to be only radical treatment for CGD. This article presents a clinical case of the manifestation of an X-linked form of chronic granulomatous disease with granulomatous manifestations in the absence of an infectious history. Parents patient agreed to use personal data in research and publications.
