Pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne syndrome (PAPA syndrome): Report of a sporadic case without an identifiable mutation in the CD2BP1 gene
Posted on August 26, 2009
To the Editor: Autosomal dominant PAPA syndrome (pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum [PG], and acne) was first described in 1997 as an unusual triad of pyogenic sterile arthritis, PG, and acne conglobata. The linkage of CD2-binding protein 1 (CD2BP1) gene mutation in patients with PAPA syndrome has been confirmed. Herein, we describe a sporadic case of PAPA syndrome without an identifiable mutation in the CD2BP1 gene.
