Cryptic Telomere Dysfunction Diagnosed After Recurrent Opportunistic Pneumonia: A Case Report and Review

2026-04-06

Abstract excerpt

Telomere biology disorders (TBDs) represent a spectrum of inherited syndromes caused by defects in telomere maintenance, leading to progressive cellular senescence and multisystem involvement. Their clinical manifestations are often heterogeneous and may remain unrecognized until advanced complications arise. We describe a case of previously undiagnosed telomere dysfunction presenting with recurrent opportunistic...
