СИНДРОМ ДЕФИЦИТА МЕВАЛОНАТКИНАЗЫ У РЕБЕНКА РАННЕГО ВОЗРАСТА: КЛЮЧЕВЫЕ АСПЕКТЫ ДИАГНОСТИКИ И ЛЕЧЕНИЯ

Abstract

Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is a rare autoinflammatory disease with an autosomal recessive inheritance. The severity of the disease is correlated with the residual enzyme activity. There are two types of mevalonate kinase deficiency: a less severe type called hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome (HIDS) and a more severe type called mevalonic aciduria. A little more than 300 cases with MDK have been described worldwide. The rarity of this disease, and polymorphism of clinical manifestations lead to late diagnosis and late onset of specific treatment. We described the 7-month-old infant with pathogenic variants c.118C> T (p.R40W) and c.206_207del (p.S69fs) in the MVK gene in a compound heterozygous state with the successful use of an interleukin-1 blocker.
