    1. P3

      Case#: P3, 9-years-old Saudi girl

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0002028, HP:0005425, HP:0100281

      CaseHPOFreeText: P3 is a 9 years old girl with history of chronic diarrhea and recurrent sinopulmonary infections since the age of 4 months. Immunological evaluation at age of 3 years showed normal complete blood counts and differential, lymphocytes subsets, lymphocytes proliferation and oxidative burst assays. Her IgG level was 3.1 gm/L with normal IgA and IgM levels and her antibody response to pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine could not be well assessed as she received conjugated pneumococcal vaccines (Table 1). Her recurrent chest infections improved after starting intravenous immunoglobulins. Upper and lower endoscopies showed architectural distortion with focal cryptitis from cecum, ascending and transverse colon biopsies and severe active chronic colitis with crypt abscesses and ulcerations from sigmoid and rectal biopsies with no viral cytopathic changes or granuloma. Her diarrhea was treated mainly with sulfasalazine therapy. Her weight and height are normal in spite of her chronic diarrhea.

      Variant: NM_005026.4: c.433delinsGA: p.Q145Efs*51

      GenotypingMethod: DNA from all individuals we had access to was submitted for whole-genome genotyping, to determine regions of autozygosity that are shared between all affecteds. This was done under the assumption of an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern, given the nature of the pedigree and the presence of parental consanguinity. Three such regions were highlighted by the software, of which the largest was a 12.3 Mb block on Chr 1 (Fig. 1B). Simultaneously we submitted the DNA from patient P1 for WES, and followed the NGS filtering scheme indicated in Fig. 1C. Once we had limited our search area to the regions of shared autozygosity which were exclusive to the three patients, no variants survived our filtering except for one

      **Case#: ** P1, 19-years-old Saudi male

      **DiseaseAssertion: ** P1 is asserted to have "Crohn disease" and "CMV gastritis"

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0002028, HP:0005425, HP:0000964, HP:0011473, HP:0200120

      CaseHPOFreeText: P1 is a 19 year old boy with history of chronic diarrhea, recurrent sinopulmonary infections and dermatitis since the age of 2 months. At age of 1 year full upper and lower endoscopy showed duodenal villous atrophy and mild duodenitis, and antrum biopsy was suggestive of CMV gastritis with no significant colon biopsy findings. At 13 years of age he was evaluated by immunology service to rule out IEI. His complete blood counts and differential, lymphocytes subsets, lymphocytes proliferation and oxidative burst assays were normal. His IgG level was subnormal for age (4.2 gm/L) with undetectable IgM levels (Table 1). He was started on intravenous immunoglobulins with good clinical response in regard to his recurrent sinopulmonary infections. He continued to have chronic diarrhea that on frequent occasions was bloody, but he had normal weight gain and growth. Upper and lower endoscopies were performed on several occasions and showed severe chronic active colitis with ulcerations, epithelial reactive changes with granulomatous tissue formation suggestive of Crohn disease. His diarrhea responded partially to sulfasalazine therapy and short courses of steroids.

      Case#: P2, 18-years-old Saudi girl

      DiseaseAssertion: P1 is asserted to have "eosinophilic colitis"

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0002028, HP:0005425, HP:0000964

      CaseHPOFreeText: P2 is an 18 years old girl with history of chronic diarrhea, recurrent sinopulmonary infections and dermatitis since the age of 5 months. Immunological evaluation at age of 12 years showed normal complete blood counts and differential, lymphocytes subsets, lymphocytes proliferation and oxidative burst assays. Her IgG level was subnormal for age (3.6 gm/L) with undetectable IgM levels and poor antibody response to pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (Table 1). Her recurrent chest infections improved after starting intravenous immunoglobulins. She continued to have chronic diarrhea that was frequently bloody, but she also maintained normal weight gain and growth. Upper and lower endoscopies showed colonic heavy infiltration by eosinophils and focal eosinophilic abscesses consistent with eosinophilic colitis. Similar to her brother, the diarrhea responded partially to sulfasalazine therapy and short courses of steroids.

    1. and he was placed on regular intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) replacement therapy. During follow-up,due to his syndromic physical features, speech delays, and delayed teething, we investigated the underlyinggenetic cause of his agammaglobulinemia. Molecular analysis revealed a rare, novel homozygous variantc.244dup in the PIK3R1 gene. Mutations in this gene have been associated with both SHORT syndrome andautosomal recessive agammaglobulinemia as separate clinical entities. Our patient exhibits clinical andlaboratory findings consistent with both SHORT syndrome and agammaglobulinemia due to this novelmutation

      Case#: male, onset at or before age 12 months, ethnicity not specified DiseaseAssertion: Patient is asserted to have both "SHORT syndrome" and "X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA)" due to "absence of peripheral B cells" and "features of SHORT syndrome such as hyperextensibility, vision abnormalities, lack of fat tissue, triangular face, extroverted ears, ocular depression, [and] developmental and teething delay" CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0000974 (Hyperextensible skin), HP:0000504 (Abnormality of vision), HP:0005320 (Lack of facial subcutaneous fat), HP:0000325 (Triangular face), HP:0000430 (Underdeveloped nasal alae), HP:0000490 (Deeply set eye), HP:0000750 (Delayed speech and language development), HP:0002719 (Recurrent infections), HP:0030084 (Clinodactyly), HP:0045075 (Sparse eyebrow), HP:0000540 (Hypermetropia), HP:0000696 (Delayed eruption of permanent teeth) CaseHPOFreeText: A current 9 year old was diagnosed with XLA with SHORT at age 15 months after presenting with skin lesions, scrotal swelling and ulcers along with recurring upper and lower tract infections after 6 months of age. Evaluations for immunodeficiencies were performed. Basic immunoglobulin levels and lymphocyte subsets were measured, which suggested an XLA diagnosis. Delays in developmental milestones observed by the mother and physical examination suggested SHORT syndrome. CaseNotHPOs: HP:0000558 (Rieger anomaly), HP:0000364 (Hearing abnormality) GenotypingMethod: Genotyping was performed by whole exome sequencing, whivh revealed a novel pathogenic homozygous frameshift mutation in the PIK3R1 gene. PreviouslyPublished: No prior article is known to contain information on the same proband. Variant: The patient harbors NM_181523.3:c.244dup(p.(lle82Asnfs24) chr5:67522740) variant in the homozygous state. ClinVar: This variant was not found in ClinVar CAID: This variant was not found in the ClinGen Allele Registry. gnomAD:* The variant was not found in gnomAD v4.1.0.
