Abstract
The history of a 13-year-old girl with a syndrome resembling Chronic Granulomatous Disease (C.G.D.) is described. Metabolic studies in granulocytes and monocytes classified the patient as having C.G.D. The granulocytes failed to kill Staphylococcus aureus and Candida Albicans; however, the killing of these microorganisms by the patient's monocytes was nearly normal. Family studies revealed no abnormalities in the phagocytic cells of the parents and the siblings.Entities:
