Abstract
Omenn syndrome, a rare form of combined immunodeficiency in infants, presenting with recurrent infections, erythroderma, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, eosinophilia, and increased serum IgE levels. It is a fatal condition unless treated by hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Hence, an early diagnosis and a prompt treatment can lead to better outcome in these unfortunate babies afflicted with Omenn syndrome. Here, we present an 8-week-old infant with typical features of Omenn syndrome, both clinically as well as on laboratory analysis, but surprising immunohistochemical findings on lymph node biopsy.
