Abstract
BACKGROUND Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI) comprise several genetic anomalies that affect different components of the innate and adaptive responses, predisposing to infectious diseases, autoimmunity and malignancy. Different studies, mostly in adults, have reported a higher prevalence of cancer in IEI patients. However, in part due to the rarity of most of these IEI subtypes (classified in ten categories by the Primary Immunodeficiency Committee of the International Union of Immunological Societies), it is difficult to assess the risk in a large number of patients, especially during childhood. OBJECTIVE To document the cancer prevalence in a pediatric cohort from a single referral institution, assessing their risk, together with the type of neoplasia within each IEI subgroup. METHOD An extensive review of clinical records from 1989 to 2022 of IEI patients who at some point developed cancer before the age of sixteen. RESULTS Of a total of 1642 patients with IEI diagnosis, 34 developed cancer before 16 years of age, showing a prevalence (2.1%) significantly higher than that of the general age matched population (0.22). Hematologic neoplasms (mostly lymphomas) were the most frequent malignancies. CONCLUSION This study represents one of the few reports focused exclusively in pediatric IEI cases, describing not only the increased risk of developing malignancy compared with the age matched general population (a fact that must be taken into account by immunologists during follow-up) but also the association of the different neoplasms with particular IEI subtypes, thus disclosing the possible mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficient severe combined immunodeficiency (PNP SCID) is one of the rare autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency disease, and the data on epidemiology and outcome are limited. We report the successful management of a child with PNP SCID and present a systematic literature review of published case reports, case series, and cohort studies on PNP SCID listed in PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus from 1975 until March 2022. Forty-one articles were included from the 2432 articles retrieved and included 100 PNP SCID patients worldwide. Most patients presented with recurrent infections, hypogammaglobulinaemia, autoimmune manifestations, and neurological deficits. There were six reported cases of associated malignancies, mainly lymphomas. Twenty-two patients had undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with full donor chimerism seen mainly in those receiving matched sibling donors and/or conditioning chemotherapy before the transplant. This research provides a contemporary, comprehensive overview on clinical manifestations, epidemiology, genotype mutations, and transplant outcome of PNP SCID. These data highlight the importance of screening for PNP SCID in cases presented with recurrent infections, hypogammaglobulinaemia, and neurological deficits.

Abstract
Purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by decreased numbers of T-cells, variable B-cell abnormalities, decreased amount of serum uric acid and PNP enzyme activity. The affected patients usually present with recurrent infections, neurological dysfunction and autoimmune phenomena. In this study, whole-exome sequencing was used to detect mutation in the case suspected of having primary immunodeficiency. We found a homozygous mutation in PNP gene in a girl who is the third case from the national Iranian registry. She had combined immunodeficiency, autoimmune hemolytic anemia and a history of recurrent infections. She developed no neurological dysfunction. She died at the age of 11 after a severe chicken pox infection. PNP deficiency should be considered in late-onset children with recurrent infections, autoimmune disorders without typical neurologic impairment.
