RESUMO
Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a rare, primary immunodeficiency disorder that occurs due to a defective NADPH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate) oxidase system. Due to the varying clinical presentation and symptom overlap with other conditions, CGD can often pose as a challenge for paediatricians. This case report describes the approach to diagnosis and management of an infant affected by CGD, with liver abscess.
