Title: Partial resolution of bone lesions. A child with severe combined immunodeficiency disease and adenosine deaminase deficiency after enzyme-replacement therapy. Author: Yulish BS, Stern RC, Polmar SH. Journal: Am J Dis Child; 1980 Jan; 134(1):61-3. PubMed ID: 7350788. Abstract: A child with severe combined immunodeficiency disease and adenosine deaminase deficiency, with characteristic bone dysplasia, was treated with transfusions of frozen irradiated RBCs as a means of enzyme replacement. This therapy resulted in restoration of immunologic competence and partial resolution of the bone lesions. Although the natural history of these lesions without therapy is not known, enzyme-replacement therapy may have played a role in the resolution of this patient's bone lesions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
