Severe congenital neutropenia type 4 (SCN4) is associated with mutations in the G6PC3 gene. To date, all patients bearing the p.Gly260Arg variant of the G6PC3 gene show heart defects. Here, we present a case of the p.Gly260Arg variant in a patient who did not have structural or functional heart anomalies. Treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor recovered the absolute neutrophil count and neutrophil functional competence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
