Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Hyper Immunoglobulin E Syndrome, or Job's Syndrome, is a rare multisystem disorder that classically presents in early childhood with a triad of clinical manifestations that include severe eczematous dermatitis, recurrent infections (skin and lung), and elevated serum immunoglobulin E. Hyper Immunoglobulin E Syndrome is a relatively uncommon condition and as such requires careful consideration of a constellation of patient symptoms to correctly diagnose the underlying disease. In this report we present a unique case of a child with previously undiagnosed Hyper Immunoglobulin E Syndrome presenting with biphasic stridor associated with multiple areas of tracheal stenosis.
