What is "monomac"

The autosomal dominant syndrome associated with monocytopenia, B and NK cell lymphopenia and mycobacterial, fungal and viral infections (abbreviated MonoMAC) is a rare genetic disorder first described by Vihn and colleagues in 2010 and is associated with myelodysplasia, cytogenetic abnormalities, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and myeloid leukemias. Multiple mutations in the GATA2 are considered to be responsible for this syndrome.
