Clinical History
The patient presented at age 2 with recurrent sinopulmonary infections, chronic productive cough, and failure to thrive (weight <3rd percentile). Sweat chloride testing returned 78 mmol/L. Pancreatic insufficiency was confirmed with fecal elastase <100 µg/g. The patient was started on CFTR modulator therapy with improvement in FEV1 from 58% to 72% predicted over 8 months. Sputum cultures have intermittently grown Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Whole exome sequencing confirmed compound heterozygosity for the reported variant.
