Clinical Description OMIM Severe combined immunodeficiency differs from the Bruton type (300755) of agammaglobulinemia by the additional presence of lymphocytopenia ('alymphocytosis'), earlier age at death, vulnerability to viral and fungal as well as bacterial infections, lack of delayed hypersensitivity, atrophy of ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In 3 unrelated patients with X-linked SCID, Noguchi et al. (1993) identified 3 different mutations in the IL2RG gene (308380.0001-308380.0003).
Population genetics OMIM X-linked SCID is the most common form of SCID and has been estimated to account for 46% (Buckley, 2004) to 70% of all SCID cases (Stephan et al., 1993; Fischer et al., 1997).

Diagnosis GeneReviews In 2010 the US Department of Health and Human Services recommended adding severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) to the nationally reviewed uniform panel of conditions subject to newborn screening. Universal newborn screening for SCID is now available in many states: at least 34 states have already implemented or agreed to move forward with screening. ...
Clinical Description GeneReviews Typical X-linked SCID (X-SCID). Affected males appear normal at birth. As transplacentally transferred maternal serum antibody concentrations decline, infants with X-SCID are increasingly prone to infection. Most infants come to medical attention between age three and six months; however, presentation with life-threatening infection prior to three months is not uncommon. ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews Most mutations causing typical X-SCID are functionally null. ...
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews Severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) can be classified by the nature of T, B, and NK lymphocyte numbers and function (Table 3) [Puck 2012]. Presence of each subclass of lymphocytes in most individuals of each genotype is indicated by (+); absence by (–). X-SCID is the most common form of SCID. The clinical presentation of X-SCID, JAK3-SCID, and IL7RA-SCID is identical. In X-SCID, only males are affected; in JAK3- and IL7R1-SCID, both males and females are affected....
Management GeneReviews To establish the extent of disease and needs of an individual diagnosed with X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (X-SCID), the following evaluations are recommended: ...
