Abstract EN
Hyper IgD syndrome (HIDS) is a rare metabolic autoinflammatory syndrome characterised by recurrent febrile episodes, accompanied by various inflammatory symptoms.
We present a case of severe HIDS in a young girl, whose symptoms started in the neonatal period with hepatomegaly, hepatitis, thrombocytopenia, and conjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
From the age of five months, the child had recurrent febrile episodes, stomatitis, adenitis, and persistent hepatomegaly.
The diagnosis of HIDS was established when she was three years and eight months old.
This case report suggests that HIDS should be included in the differential diagnosis of neonatal hepatitis and conjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
