• “The diagnosis might also be considered if there is a family history where relatives were affected by illnesses found in X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome (XLP), such as fatal Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, lymphoma or hypogammaglobulinemia.”

  X-linked Lymphoproliferative Syndrome

• “A blood sample is obtained from a male who has clinical symptoms of X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome (XLP) or from a female who wants to see if she is a carrier of an SH2D1A alteration.”

  X-linked Lymphoproliferative Syndrome

• “If a man with X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome (and hence an SH2D1A alteration) has children with a female partner who does not carry an alteration in SH2D1A, he will either pass on a Y-chromosome to his sons (who will therefore be unaffected by the syndrome) or he will pass the X-chromosome with the SH2D1A alteration to his daughters (who will be X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome carriers).”
