Dr. Ter-Ayrapetyan G.S. Demonstrated a patient with lupus erytematdes. Localization and clinical picture of the disease are usual. But the patient undoubtedly has hereditary syphilis. Anamnesis: progressive paralysis in the mother, four spontaneous abortions, guttschinsonism, cardiac defect with sharply pronounced early vascular sclerosis, especially of the abdominal aorta. This circumstance prompted the speaker to hold the idea that hereditary syphilis played a decisive role in the etiology of this disease.

Looking through the stories of patients who passed through our hands in 1906 in a difficult department of the Kazan District Hospital, we drew attention to a rather rare case of idiocy, which, unfortunately, we had to observe for a very short time, why its study was of a general nature, and there is much in the clinical picture seemed unclear. However, we had to perform an autopsy on this patient and, examining his brain, we hoped to find the key to understanding those phenomena that seemed incomprehensible during his lifetime.

66 patients with Sneddons syndrome and 29 patients with primary antiphospholipide syndrome has been examinated. Clinical picture of Sneddons syndrome was characterized by combination of cerebrovascular disturbances (ischemic disturbance of cerebral circulation, primary disturbance of cerebral circulation) with skin change in the form of livedo. In some patients there were thromboses of peripheric veins, ischemic heart disease, spontaneous abortions or intrauterine fetus death in women, thrombocytopenia. In 64% of patients with Sneddons syndrome there were revealed antibodies to phospholipids cardiolipin and/or lupus anticoagulant, and this indicates that these cases belong to primary antiphospholipide syndrome. Clinical manifestations in 29 patients with primary antiphospholipide syndrome were similar to those in Sneddons syndrome except for the absence of livedo.

Blau syndrome (BS) is a rare monogenic granulomatous autoinflammatory disease (a variant of genetically determined sarcoidosis) caused by a mutation of the NOD2/CARD15 gene, transmitted in an autosomal dominant manner and manifested by a triad of signs: dermatitis, granulomatous arthritis with pronounced exudative component and involvement of periarticular tissues, uveitis. Objective of the study: to present the variants of the clinical picture and the type of pathogenic variants (mutations) in patients with a rare monogenic granulomatous autoinflammatory disease – BS – in the Russian Federation, the clinical picture of which can mimic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Materials and methods of research: the observational study included patients with BS who were observed in the children's department of the V.A. Nasonova Research Institute of Rheumatology from 2014 to 2021, the diagnosis of which was confirmed by the detection of a pathogenic mutation in the NOD2/CARD15 gene. Results: the study included 8 children: 6 boys and 2 girls. Ethnic Russians were 5 patients, 1 Jew, 1 of mixed origin (peoples of Dagestan/Russians), 1 Tatar female. The age of onset of the disease is from the first days of life to 2,5 years. Skin lesions were observed in 6 (75%) patients. Atypical arthritis (boggy arthritis) was observed in all patients, in all cases the wrist, ankle and knee joints were involved in the pathological process. Uveitis developed after all other manifestations and was detected in 6 (75%) patients. At the onset, 5 patients had anterior uveitis, 2 of them with subsequent involvement of the posterior segment; in 1 child, the first ophthalmic manifestation was posterior uveitis. In 5 patients, there was no increase in acute phase markers (ESR, C-reactive protein). 5 (62,5%) patients had variant p.R334Q (c.1001G>A), 2 (25%) had variant p.R334W (c.1001G>A), 1 patient had variant p.M513T (c.1538T>C) of the NOD2/CARD15 gene. Conclusions: BS can be encountered in the practice of a pediatric rheumatologist in Russia and requires differentiation from polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Identification of the pathogenic variant of the NOD2/CARD15 gene plays a decisive role in the diagnosis.

There are four lysosomal diseases of which the neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis is the rarest. The clinical presentation and their characteric abnormal ultrastructure subdivide them into four types. These are known as the Infantile form (Santavuori-Haltia), Late infantile form (Jansky-Bielschowsky), Juvenile form (Batten-Spielmeyer-Voght) and the Adult form (Kuph's).An 8 year old Omani girl presented wth myclonic jerks since the age of 4 years, with progressive encephalopathy, mental retardation, ataxia and loss of vision. An ophthalmoscopy was performed followed by rectal suction biopsies (fig. 1). A previous sibling had died of an undiagnosed neurological disorder with a similar clinical picture.
