Detection of neutrophil‐associated immunoglobulin using flow cytometry in autoimmune neutropenia of infancy

Background : Autoimmune neutropenia of infancy (ANI) is a common form of chronic childhood neutropenia, which is caused by antineutrophil antibodies. The syndrome is characterized by a severe selective neutropenia accompanied with recurrent bacterial infections.
