Preferred Label : mevalonate kinase deficiency;

MeSH definition : Autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the mevalonate kinase gene. Because of the mutations cholesterol biosynthesis is disrupted and MEVALONIC ACID accumulates. It is characterized by a range of symptoms, including dysmorphic FACIES, psychomotor retardation, CATARACT, hepatosplenomegaly, CEREBELLAR ATAXIA, elevated IMMUNOGLOBULIN D, and recurrent febrile crises with FEVER; LYMPHADENOPATHY; ARTHRALGIA; EDEMA; and rash.;

MeSH synonym : kinase deficiencies, mevalonate; kinase deficiency, mevalonate; mevalonate kinase deficiencies;

CISMeF synonym : syndromes, Hyper-IgD;

MeSH hyponym : mevalonic aciduria; Aciduria, Mevalonic; Mevalonicaciduria; Mevalonicacidurias;

Related MeSH term : hyperimmunoglobulinemia D; Hyper IgD Syndrome; Hyper IgD Syndromes; Periodic Fever, Dutch Type; Hyper-IgD Syndrome; Hyper-IgD Syndromes; Syndrome, Hyper-IgD; Hyperimmunoglobulinemia D And Periodic Fever Syndrome;
