Neutrophil-specific granule deficiency
Neutrophil-specific granule deficiency (SGD, previously known as lactoferrin deficiency) is a rare congenital immunodeficiency characterized by an increased risk for pyogenic infections due to defective production of specific granules and gelatinase granules in patient neutrophils.
==Symptoms==
Atypical infections are the key clinical manifestation of SGD.〔 Within the first few years of life, patients will experience repeated pyogenic infections by species such as ''Staphylococcus aureus'', ''Pseudomonas aeruginosa'' or other Enterobacteriaceae, and ''Candida albicans''. Cutaneous ulcers or abscesses and pneumonia and chronic lung disease are common. Patients may also develop sepsis, mastoiditis, otitis media, and lymphadenopathy. Infants may present with vomiting, diarrhea, and failure to thrive.
Diagnosis can be made based upon CEBPE gene mutation or a pathognomonic finding of a blood smear showing lack of specific granules. Neutrophils and eosinophils will contain hyposegmented nuclei (a pseudo-Pelger–Huet anomaly).
