PW02-020 - Colitis revealing mevalonate kinase deficiency
Case report Here we report for the first time two patients with MKD revealed by a severe neonatal colitis. Both patients had chronic bloody diarrhea and failure to thrive, one patient since the age of one month and the other twelve days. Total parenteral nutrition was required. A marked elevation of acute phase reactants was present, and no evidence of infection was found. In patient 1, ileocol...
متن کاملSevere Early-Onset Colitis Revealing Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency abstract
Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D is the less severe form of mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) caused by recessive inherited mutation in the mevalonate kinase gene. Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D is characterized by febrile attacks, often associated with transient digestive manifestations, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and vomiting. Here we report for the first time 2 patients with MKD revealed by seve...

متن کاملMevalonate kinase deficiency: current perspectives
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is a recessively inherited autoinflammatory disorder with a spectrum of manifestations, including the well-defined clinical phenotypes of hyperimmunoglobulinemia D and periodic fever syndrome and mevalonic aciduria. Patients with MKD have recurrent attacks of hyperinflammation associated with fever, abdominal pain, arthralgias, and mucocutaneous lesions, and m...
متن کاملInterleukin-1 antagonists in Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency
Background Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD) is one of the autoinflammatory fever syndromes, caused by mutations in the MKD gene. Systemic inflammatory symptoms may be mild to severe leading to early death, and recurrent bacterial infections frequently develop in the disease course. On demand NSAID and steroids are the most commonly used. Few case-reports suggested that interleukin-1 (IL-1) an...
