Anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 juvenile dermatomyositis (anti-MDA5 JDM) is associated with high risk of developing rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD). Here we report an 11-year-old girl anti-MDA5 JDM and RP-ILD which led to a fatal outcome, further aggravated by SARS-CoV-2 infection. She was referred our hospital after being diagnosed respiratory failure due RP-ILD. On admission, fibrobronchoscopy bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) revealed Pneumocystis...

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a complex rheumatic disease with both autoimmune and autoinflammatory components. Recently, familial cases of systemic-onset JIA have been attributed to mutations in LACC1/FAMIN. We describe three affected siblings from Moroccan consanguineous family an early-onset chronic, symmetric erosive previously diagnosed as rheumatoid factor (RF)-negative polyarticular JIA. Autozygosity mapping identified four homozygous regions shared by all patients, located...

We identified a consanguineous Moroccan family with three affected siblings diagnosed rheumatoid factor-negative polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. They all suffered from an early-onset (2-4 years-old) chronic and symmetric polyarthritis affecting both large small joints. The joint involvement was markedly erosive in two siblings, the older sister requiring hip prosthetic replacement at age of 18 years. None patients had fever, skin rash, uveitis or other extra-articular...
