description Background: Cartilage-hair hypoplasia is a rare autosomal recessive disease, which is characterized by metaphyseal chondrodysplasia and thin hair. It can be accompanied by immunological disorders in varying degrees. Clinical case: The case of a 35-month-old girl is described. Since her birth, with growth restriction, she has developed pneumonia eleven times, malabsorption syndrome and aganglionic megacolon, which is why she was diagnosed with cartilage-hair hypoplasia, with expression of non-severe combined immunodeficiency. The decision was to proceed with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. At the time of this report, the patient was free from infectious processes. Conclusion: Cartilage-hair hypoplasia is a condition with diverse clinical features and different degrees of immunodeficiency. As part of the treatment, it is possible to perform haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
