Methods We present the case of the patient who had been monitored closely from the fifth day of her life because of the presence of neonatal exanthem, bouts of fevers, and positive inflammatory parameters. Over time the patient developed other symptoms such as pain and swelling of joints, headaches, lymphadenopathy, aseptic meningitis, and hearing impairment. Genetic analysis at the age of 24 years confirmed suspected mutation in the gene NLPR3(CAIS1) T405P. In September 2005 the therapy with anakinra was started at the dose of 100 mg/day. Effectiveness of the therapy was evaluated on the basis of patient’s subjective complaints (exathem, headaches, pain in joints, changes in well-being), objective findings and laboratory markers of inflammation. Results During the first week of therapy the patient reported dramatic relief of symptoms she suffered for years (exanthem, headache, pain in joints). Gradually, in the course of 6 months of therapy, levels of inflammation markers were decreased and bouts of fever were eliminated permanently. At present the patient is monitored closely, she is free of significant subjective symptoms. Nevertherless, the loss of vision and impairment of hearing were found to be progressing. The patient tolerates without problems subcutaneous anakinra injections administered daily. Recurrent cystitis and mycotic infection of nails were treated successfully on out-ofhospital basis. Dynamics of the selected laboratory indicators (before initiation of the therapy, after 8 weeks, 6 months, and 60 months of therapy, respectively) is as follows: ESR 70/100, 40/60, 45/52, 20/50, CRP (mg/l) 60, 7, 5, 0.44, IgG (g/l) 21.2, 19.8, 15.4, 12.5, IgA (g/l) 6.7, 5.9, 3.2, 2.5, s-creatinin (umol/l): 48, 52, 58, 65.3, u-protein: negat-negat-negat-negat.
