Mutations in
SLC46A1
result in a defect of the proton coupled folate transporter (PCFT) and are the basis of hereditary folate malabsorption (HFM). Patients with HFM frequently present with neurodevelopmental delay and megaloblastic anemia. Some cases may be complicated by additional
lymphopenia
and immunodeficiency. We report a patient with a new homozygous mutation in the
SLC46A1
gene. The boy presented with early-onset pancytopenia and secondary immunodeficiency. We provide clinical and molecular observations that extend the phenotypic description of HFM and highlight diagnostic as well as therapeutic pitfalls in this rare condition.
