VEXAS syndrome: A 2-case series report

Abstract

VEXAS syndrome is a rare entity secondary to UBA1 gene mutations, located on the X chromosome. This mutation generates, as a consequence, a characteristic vacuolation on haematopoietic stem-cells. It is characterized by multiple autoinflammatory and haematologic manifestations, which respond and end up being dependent on corticosteroid treatment. In this publication we present a 2-case series diagnosed at our hospital and make a brief literature review of the published evidence so far.
