Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, and somatic syndrome in the intensive care unit: a case report.

Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, and somatic syndrome should be suspected in male patients presenting with inflammatory symptoms, such as fever, skin eruption, chondritis, venous thromboembolism, and vacuoles in bone marrow precursors. Patients with undiagnosed vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, and somatic syndrome may present with organ failure requiring hospitalization in intensive care unit, where screening for UBA1 mutation should be performed when medical history is evocative. Multidisciplinary team involvement is highly recommended for patient management, notably to start appropriate immunosuppressive treatments.
