Summary

Isolated congenital asplenia (ICAS) is a rare cause of primary immunodeficiency. Most affected individuals die of severe bacterial infections in early childhood. Isolated asplenia is distinct from asplenia associated with other complex visceral defects, notably heterotaxy syndromes such as Ivemark syndrome (208530) (summary by Mahlaoui et al., 2011).
