Abstract
CASE PRESENTATION: A 3-year-and-6-month-old child was reported to have recurrent high fever with generalized lymph node enlargement and significant elevation of inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein and procalcitonin in tests. Later, whole exome sequencing determined that the child's disease was haploinsufficiency of A20 (HA20). RESULTS: After immunosuppressive therapy, the child's symptoms improved significantly, and the inflammatory markers dropped to the normal range. CONCLUSION: Because of the characteristics of HA20, this disease is often underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed in clinical practice. By reporting this case of HA20 in a child, we hope to increase the awareness of this disease in the clinic.
