A 23-year-old man presented with neutropenia and a history of warts from ages 8 to 10 years that resolved spontaneously until recurrence at age 20 years. Other than 2 cutaneous abscesses and recurrent otitis media limited to childhood, he denied severe or unusual infections. Scars from numerous prior warts were evident on the upper extremities.
Previously, his absolute neutrophil count had been reported as 120/[mm. sup. 3]. At the current examination, his IgG3 level was reduced, but the serum concentrations of IgA, IgM, and IgG were normal. Test results for neutrophil antibodies, antinuclear antibodies, human immunodeficiency virus, isoagglutinin titers, and antibody responses to diphtheria, influenza B, and pneumococcal vaccination were also normal.
