Abstract EN
The X-linked hyperimmunoglobulin M syndrome (HIGM), caused by mutations in the CD40LG gene, is a kind of primary immunodeficiency disease (PID).
Patients with X-linked HIGM are susceptible to infection as well as autoimmune diseases.
Lipoma arborescens (LA) is a rare benign tumor, of which the pathogenesis mechanism has not been clearly understood.
We report a case of HIGM combined with LA in a 22-year-old male patient.
A new deletion mutation of CD40LG gene was detected in this case.
The possible relationship between HIGM and LA was also discussed.
