Abstract
Background
A Salivary Multi Test® (SMT®) was used in children with severe congenital neutropenia who were admitted to the pediatrics department of our hospital.
Case presentation
SMT® was conducted on three patients with severe congenital neutropenia. Rod and segmented neutrophil counts in the peripheral blood showed fluctuations similar to those of the “leukocyte level” in SMT®.
Conclusion
SMT®, which uses saliva samples that are non-invasive and can be easily collected, may help manage systemic diseases.
