Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: BACKGROUND: X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), also referred to as Bruton's tyrosine kinase deficiency, is a rare genetic disorder that affects the immune system. We conducted genetic analysis on patients suffering from immunodeficiency by utilizing Next-Generation Sequencing techniques, as well as their closest relatives, to facilitate accurate diagnosis, offer genetic counseling services, and enhance our comprehension of XLA.
