Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis is a rare musculoskeletal disorder characterized by episodic muscle weakness associated with hyperkalemia. It is a channelopathy associated with point mutations in the SCNA4 gene, with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. We report the case of a 39-year-old patient with a picture with onset at six years of age, consisting of episodes of weakness caused by physical activity and intercurrent infectious processes, in whom a point mutation was found in the SCNA4 gene, not previously reported in the literature.

Abstract VEXAS syndrome is a recently described X-linked autoinflammatory condition associated with somatic mutation of the UBA1 gene. It often coexists with MDS which can occur due to DNMT3A mutation. These patients, predominantly males, present after the fifth decade of life with unique systemic inflammatory clinical features and have hematological abnormalities and vacuolated precursor cells on bone marrow pathology. Here we describe a unique case of VEXAS syndrome in a patient harboring DNMT3A gene mutation with coexisting UBA1 mutation with a review of literature.
