Leucocyte adhesion deficiency type I (LAD I) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of leucocyte function, characterized by delayed separation of the umblical cord, recurrent bacterial and fungal infections, defective wound healing and impressive constant blood neutrophilia. The authors report a child with genetic diagnosis of leucocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) type I, who succumbed to his illness and developed amyloidosis preterminally. To the best of author's knowledge this is the first case of leucocyte adhesion deficiency type I associated with amyloidosis among the human LAD cases worldwide.
