Abstrakt: This scientific letter explores the limitations of next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques in diagnosing inborn errors of immunity (IEI). The authors present a case study of a patient with LRBA deficiency who could not be diagnosed using NGS panel and whole-exome sequencing. They emphasize the importance of clinical suspicion and the need for additional diagnostic techniques, such as Sanger sequencing. The authors also discuss a study that compares the levels of biological defects in patients with LRBA deficiency and CTLA-4 insufficiency, using whole-genome sequencing to analyze a cohort of individuals with primary immunodeficiency. The findings shed light on the genetic factors and mechanisms involved in these conditions. [Extracted from the article]
