Patau's Syndrome, Trisomy 13 | severe retardation, microphthalmia, microcephaly, cleft lip/palate, abnormal forebrain structures, polydactyly, congenital heart disease, death by one year |
Down's Syndrome | 95% due to meiotic nondisjunction of homologous chromosomes. low levels of alpha fetoprotein, high B-hCG, high nuchal translucency. septum primum, ASD due to endocardial cushion defect, duodenal atresia, prominent epicanthal folds, simian crease |

Bruton's agammaglobulinemia | x linked recessive, tyrosine kinase defect, low levels of all immunoglobulins. Recurrent bacterial infections post six months of age when maternal IgG's decline. BOYS (xlinked) and BACTERIAL infection |
Thymic Aplasia (DiGeorge) | 3rd and 4th pharyngeal pouch deficit, Thymus and parathyroid don't develop. tetany from hypocalcemia, viral and fungal infections from low T cells. Congenital defects of heart and great vessels. 22q11 deletion |
SCID, B and T cell | defect in stem cell differentiation, viral bacterial fungal and protozoal infections. many causes. (ex. no MHCII, bad IL-2 receptor) |
IL-12 receptor deficiency on T cells | disseminated mycobacterial infections |
hyper IgM syndrome | Defect in CD40 ligand on CD4 T helper cells, inability to class switch. severe pyogenic infections. high IgM, low everything else |
Wiscott-Aldrich Syndrome | X linked, can't mount IgM response to capsular bacteria (esp strep pneumo). WIPE: wiscott, pyogenic Infections, purpura, eczema. 12% get non hodgkin's lymphoma |
Job's syndrome | low macrophage activation, failure of gamma interferon production by T helper cells. neutrophils don't respond with chemotaxis. recurrent noninflamed staph abcesses, eczema, coarse facies, retained primary teeth, and high IgE |
Leukocyte adhesion deficiency | defect in LFA-1 adhesion proteins on phagocytes. early presentation with delayed separation of umbilicus |
Chediak-Higashi disease | auto recessive. defect in microtubular function and lysosomal emptying of phagocytic cells. staph and strep infections, partial albinism, peripheral neuropathy |
chronic granulomatous disease | Phagocytosis not working, neuts lack NADPH oxidase. diagnose with negative nitroblue tetrazolium dye reduction test |
