Introduction: The Wiskott Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a X-linked genetic disease. It is due to a mutation of the WASP gene that regulates the actin cytoskeleton. It is characterized by a clinical triad that combines immune deficiency, eczema and bleeding due to microcytic thrombocytopenia. Immunodeficiency manifests itself by the occurrence of recurrent and / or severe infections, autoimmunity or malignancy.

Introduction:Hyper immunoglobulin M (HIGM) syndrome results from a variety of genetic defects that affect the interaction between T-lymphocytes and B-lymphocytes leading to inability to switch from the production of antibodies of the IgM type to antibodies of the IgG, IgA or IgE types.

Introduction: Le syndrome Hyper-immunoglobuline M (HIGM) résulte d’une variété de defaults génétiques qui affectent l’interaction entre les lymphocytes T et B aboutissant à l’incapacité, par ces derniers, de ‘switcher’ de la production d’anticorps d’isotype IgM vers les isotypes IgG, IgA ou IgE.

Agammaglobulinemia is a primary immunodeficiency disease. Affected children presented a blockade in maturation of B-cells in the bone marrow which leads to low or absent serum immunoglobulin levels (1). There are three types: X-linked, early onset, and late onset.
