Abstract
The incidence of chronic granulomatous disease in international reports is 1:250,000; however, in Mexico it is unknown. At the National Institute of Pediatrics of Mexico a project for facilitating the diagnosis of the disease was implemented by us in 2009. From the start of such project up to date 68 cases have been studied; 80% of those are X-linked forms (LX) and moreover, it has become noticeable the diagnosis at a younger age. The new challenge we are facing its to provide a successful treatment to those patients diagnosed with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). We are reporting the case of a one-month old newborn patient diagnosed with CGD-LX that was successfully transplanted in Mexico.References
