Jobert's syndrome, more commonly known as Job's syndrome or Hyper-IgE syndrome, is a rare immunodeficiency disorder characterized by elevated levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE), recurrent bacterial infections, eczema, and distinctive facial features. It is primarily caused by mutations in the STAT3 gene, which plays a crucial role in immune response and inflammation. Individuals with this syndrome often experience severe skin infections, respiratory issues, and dental problems. Early diagnosis and management are essential to improve quality of life and reduce complications.
