Abstract

Shwachman-Diamond syndrome is a constitutional disorder characterized by exocrine pancreatic failure and neutropenia with dysgranulopoiesis. It is a rare disease, with less than 100 cases reported in France. Here we report the case of a 23-year-old woman with this syndrome. The clinical feature and the diagnostic steps are described, as well as the evolution and management in medical and laboratory medicine practice.
