Deficiency of the purine salvage pathway enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase causes a combined immunodeficiency and neurologic abnormalities and is usually fatal in childhood. We report the first successful transplantation of bone marrow from a sibling with identical class II human leukocyte antigens in this condition, demonstrating correction of both lymphocyte metabolic and functional abnormalities.
