What it is

A rare group of genetic primary immunodeficiencies characterized by impaired neutrophil maturation or function. Neutropenia ranges from mild to severe and may be cyclic, isolated, or syndromic. It is defined by a triad of severe infections, diverse comorbidities, and/or increased leukemic risk, with severity and frequency determined by the underlying gene defect.
