X-linked severe congenital neutropenia is an immunodeficiency syndrome characterized by recurrent major bacterial infections, severe congenital neutropenia, and monocytopenia.

It is transmitted as an X-linked recessive trait and is caused by mutations in the <i>WAS</i> gene, encoding the WASP protein.
