Diagnosis OMIM - Prenatal Diagnosis

Hirschhorn et al. (1975) diagnosed ADA deficiency in a fetus by finding less than 1.5% ADA activity in cultured amniotic fluid cells. An older sib had died from SCID due to ADA deficiency. ...

Clinical Description OMIM Inherited ADA deficiency causes a variable phenotypic spectrum, the most severe being SCID presenting in infancy and usually resulting in early death. Ten to 15% of patients have a 'delayed' clinical onset by age 6 to 24 months, and ...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations OMIM Hirschhorn et al. (1994) reported a patient diagnosed with SCID due to ADA deficiency at age 2.5 years because of life-threatening pneumonia, recurrent infections, failure of normal growth, and lymphopenia. However, he retained significant cellular immune function. His condition ...
Molecular genetics OMIM - Severe Combined Immunodeficiency due to ADA Deficiency

In a patient with SCID due to ADA deficiency who was originally reported by Hirschhorn et al. (1975), Valerio et al. (1986) identified compound heterozygosity for 2 mutations in ...

Diagnosis GeneReviews Diagnostic criteria for adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews Adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency is a systemic purine metabolic disorder that primarily affects lymphocyte development and function [Hirschhorn 1999, Hershfield & Mitchell 2001, Hershfield 2004]. The phenotype ranges from SCID in infants, to less severe "delayed/late" onset in older children and adults, to benign "partial ADA deficiency."...
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews Most known ADA mutations have been discovered through research into the relationship of genotype to phenotype [Hirschhorn et al 1990, Santisteban et al 1993, Arredondo-Vega et al 1994, Ozsahin et al 1997]. ...
Differential Diagnosis GeneReviews Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency is an inborn error of purine metabolism that causes autosomal recessive immunodeficiency, which in some respects is similar clinically and pathophysiologically to adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency [Hershfield 2004]. Biochemical testing for both ADA and PNP deficiency should be performed in individuals with immunodeficiency who are suspected of having either disorder....
Management GeneReviews To establish the extent of disease in an individual diagnosed with adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficiency, the following evaluations are recommended:...
