Abstract
Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a rare monogenic disease, inherited in an autosomal recessive manner, which is caused by a loss-of-function mutation in the ADA2 gene. The disease is manifested by systemic vasculitis, deficiency of medullary hematopoiesis, and/or immunodeficiency. According to international classification of primary immunodeficiencies, DADA2 is considered to be an autoimmflamotary syndrome. Most often, the disease debuts before the age of 18, however, debuts at an older age have been reported. Due to nonspecificity of the symptoms, the correct diagnosis can be quite late, and patients can end up consulting a number of specialists before seeing a pediatrician or an immunologist. A delay in diagnosis, in turn, delays the start of pathogenic therapy, which determines the prognosis of the disease, and affects patients` quality of life. In this article, we present a literature review on DADA2 and a clinical case with a prevailing clinical picture of vasculitis with nervous system damage, which demonstrates the importance of timely diagnosis and the relevance of knowledge of the disease by doctors of different specialties.
