Preferred Name

Leukocyte adhesion deficiency type III

Definitions
A form of leukocyte adhesion deficiency characterized by both severe bacterial infections and a severe bleeding disorder. The disease is extremely rare. Caused by mutations in the FERMT3 gene (11q13.1), which encodes kindlin-3 in hematopoietic cells. The FERMT3 mutations lead to an activation defect of all beta-integrins. Transmission is autosomal recessive. A form of leucocyte adhesion deficiency characterised by both severe bacterial infections and a severe bleeding disorder. The disease is extremely rare.
