Hyper IgM (HIGM) syndromes are a complex of primary immunodeficiency disorders. A 4-years-old boy with recurrent fever and chills, dyspnea, sort throat for a month was admitted to emergency department. In the current case, whole exome sequencing followed by Sanger sequencing were employed in order to screen probable functional mutations. Molecular analysis revealed a functional mutation across the CD40L gene (NM_000074: exon5: c.T464C) resulted in amino acid change p.L155P attributed to X-linked hyper IgM syndrome. The findings of the current study signify the critical role of microbial infection as well as XHIGM screening, particularly in those children cases with respiratory symptoms.
