Summary:C, Five days after surgery, MRI showed improved periorbital, eyelid, and maxillofacial swelling, and low signal from the right nasal orbit Bone marrow biopsy results showed extremely reduced myeloproliferation and toxic particles in some mature cells of the granulocyte system. Intravenous immunoglobulin was used, and intravenous infusions of platelets, red blood cells, and recombinant human granulocyte/macrophage colony stimulating factor were given. The only laboratory finding was decreased B and NK cells, suggesting a humoral immunodeficiency. [...]this appeared to be a case of primary immunodeficiency.
