Abstract :
Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS)
is a prototypic disorder of abnormal lymphocyte
homeostasis. In the September 2005 issue of The Iranian
Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, a patient
with clinical features consistent with ALPS was described.
Although the clinical presentation was in favor of ALPS,
a precise diagnosis needed more laboratory evaluations.
