    Abstract With the exponential discovery of new inborn errors of immunity (IEI), it is becoming increasingly difficult to differentiate between a number of the more recently defined disorders. This is compounded by the fact that although IEI primarily present with immunodeficiency, the spectrum of disease is broad and often extends to features typical of autoimmunity, autoinflammation, atopic disease, and/or malignancy. Here we use case studies to discuss the laboratory and genetic tests used that ultimately led to the specific diagnoses.

    Abstract Background: Autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome (AD-HIES) is a rare genetic syndrome that alters typical post-operative wound healing. AD-HIES patients are prone to develop persistent air leaks (PALs) due to bronchopleural fistulas. This report is unique in that it describes a novel approach to managing PALs in this complex population.
    Case description: Two patients with AD-HIES were identified in the setting of a PAL. The first patient was a 31-year-old male with recurrent pneumonia, who developed a large hydropneumothorax following re-presentation with fever and cough. A chest tube was inserted, which required continuous suction in the setting of what developed into a PAL. Subsequently, an endobronchial valve (EBV) was deployed to successfully manage the PAL. The second patient was a 25-year-old male, who developed a post-operative large volume air leak following a complicated surgical resection of a giant pneumatocele. Several attempts of placing multiple EBVs were required to finally address the PAL. In both cases, EBVs were successfully employed to manage and eventually resolve symptoms caused by PAL.
    Conclusions: Our experience suggests that EBVs are successful in treating PAL in the setting of AD-HIES, which often manifests as highly complex scenarios. Hence, EBVs represent a valuable addition to the therapeutic armamentarium against recalcitrant PAL. EBVs were well-tolerated in patients afflicted by AD-HIES, with no progressive infections noted. Both patients ultimately were able to resolve their PAL following placement of the EBV.

    Abstract Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been the standard of care for infants with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) for several decades due to the dismal prognosis early in life without immune reconstitution. In recent years, as HSCT conditioning regimens and supportive care have greatly improved, HSCT is gaining in acceptance for more non-SCID primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs) and outside the early childhood period. In addition, potential donor options for non-SCID PIDs are expanding with increasing success for haploidentical donor transplants. In this brief report of a presentation at the PIDS-St. Jude 2018 conference, PIDs for which transplants are increasingly performed outside of early childhood will be discussed.

    Abstract The differential diagnosis of eosinophilia is broad and includes infections, malignancies, and atopy as well as inborn errors of immunity (IEI). Certain types of IEIs are known to be associated with elevated numbers of eosinophils and frequently elevated serum IgE, whereas for others the degree and frequency of eosinophilia are less established. The molecular defects underlying IEI are heterogeneous and affect different pathways, which highlights the complex regulations of this cell population within the immune system. In this review, we list and discuss clinical manifestations and therapies of immune deficiency or immune dysregulation disorders associated with peripheral blood or tissue eosinophilia with or without raised IgE levels. We present illustrative case vignettes for the most common entities and propose a diagnostic algorithm aiming to help physicians systematically to evaluate patients with eosinophilia and suspicion of an underlying IEI.

    Abstract Cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems depend on proper actin dynamics to control cell behavior for effective immune responses. Dysregulated actin networks are known to play a pathogenic role in an increasing number of inborn errors of immunity. The WAVE regulatory complex (WRC) mediates branched actin polymerization, a process required for key cellular functions including migration, phagocytosis, vesicular transport, and immune synapse formation. Recent reports of pathogenic variants in NCKAP1L, a hematopoietically restricted gene encoding the HEM1 protein component of the WRC, defined a novel disease involving recurrent bacterial and viral infections, autoimmunity, and excessive inflammation (OMIM 141180). This review summarizes the diverse clinical presentations and immunological phenotypes observed in HEM1-deficient patients. In addition, we integrate the pathophysiological mechanisms described in current literature and highlight the outstanding questions for diagnosis and management of the HEM1 actin immunodysregulatory disorder.
