Gynecologic Manifestations In Emberger Syndrome
TURKISH JOURNAL OF OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY(2021)
Abstract
Immune system vulnerability seems to play a significant role in the development and malignant transformation of pre-malignant squamous cell lesions. Emberger syndrome is a condition that affects the immune system, which is caused by GATA2 gene mutations. Our objective was to present the gynecologic expressions of this rare syndrome in our case. Here, we discussed a relatively young patient with findings related to Emberger syndrome such as recurrent infections, myelodysplastic syndrome, lower extremity edema, and multifocal, multicentric premalignant/malignant genital lesions. Sequencing of the GATA2 gene was accomplished for suspected Emberger syndrome and a point mutation in intron5, c1143+8C >T was detected. Gynecologists may play an important role in the early detection of Emberger syndrome and guiding multidisciplinary treatment options as the initial signs related to this rare entity can appear on the genitalia.
