Abstract in English
The hyper immuno-globuline E (IgE) syndrome with recurrent infections or
Job syndrome is a rare immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent skin
and pulmonary abscesses and extremely elevated levels of IgE in serum with
eczematous dermatitis. Associated facial and skeletal features have been
recognized but their frequency is unknown. The genetic basis of this
syndrome is poorly understood.
