CINCA syndrome

CINCA syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of the NLRP3 gene. It is characterized by neonatal-onset chronic multisystemic inflammation involving skin, joints, and central nervous system.

Management

As with all cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes, interleukin-1 antagonism is effective in both management of acute inflammatory attacks and prevention of amyloidosis.
