%X OBJECTIVE: Through a case of deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) to improve domestic clinicians' understanding of the disease, and to review the literature, promote dermatologists for clinical secondary primary lesion diagnosis.
METHODS: Analysis of a case diagnosed with DADA2 deficiency of clinical manifestations, laboratory, imaging examination and treatment methods, and discussion through literature analysis.
RESULTS: The child with recurrent fever, limbs nodular erythema, gradually in the limbs. CT of lower limb skin showed mild edema of the spinous layer, intact basal layer, dilated vascular congestion in the superficial dermis, visible RBC extravasation, and changes of telangiectasia ring purpura were considered. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a left choroidal cleft cyst. Genetic test was the CECR1 mutation. The treatment with adalimumab was effective.
CONCLUSIONS: In this case, DADA2 is the seventh case in China, and the CECR1 mutation site (c.254A> T p.N85I,c.851G>T p. G284V) was a compound heterozygous mutation. Mastering the clinical characteristics is helpful for clinicians to diagnose this disease.
