  • Title: Omenn's disease.
    Author: Dyke MP, Marlow N, Berry PJ.
    Journal: Arch Dis Child; 1991 Oct; 66(10):1247-8. PubMed ID: 1835343.
    Abstract:
    The importance of accurate pathological diagnosis is emphasised in the case of a newborn infant who presented with alopecia, a generalised erythrodermatous skin eruption, and hepatosplenomegaly. She subsequently developed generalised lymphadenopathy and recurrent septicaemia and died aged 2 months. The histological findings of widespread lymphocytic, histiocytic, and eosinophilic tissue infiltration, associated with thymic hypoplasia, were consistent with autosomal recessive Omenn's disease.
