주관절의 반복적 감염에서 진단된 CARD9 결핍증: 진균 감염의 희귀 유전 요인

초록

Recurrent fungal infections of the elbow joint are extremely rare. This paper reports a case of a caspase recruitment domain family member 9 (CARD9) deficiency, a genetic disorder characterized by impaired antifungal immunity, which is diagnosed in a young and relatively healthy male patient who presented with persistent fungal infection. In recurrent fungal infections without identifiable risk factors, clinicians should consider the possibility of an underlying genetic immunodeficiency and perform genetic testing when appropriate.
