LPIN2 -related Majeed syndrome: report of two Indian patients with novel variants in LPIN2 and review of literature.

LPIN2 -related Majeed syndrome (MIM# 609628) is a rare non-inflammasome autoinflammatory disease, caused due to biallelic variants in LPIN2 (MIM* 605519). To date, only 31 individuals from 18 families have been reported with this rare condition. Exome sequencing was done in two affected individuals from two unrelated families. Additionally, phenotypic, and genotypic information from the literature was reviewed. Two novel homozygous missense variants, c.2207G>A p. (Arg736His) and c.1157C>G p. (Ser386Ter) in LPIN2 , were identified in family 1 and family 2 respectively. Chronic recurrent osteomyelitis involving the lower extremities was the most common clinical presentation. LPIN2 -related Majeed syndrome should be considered as a differential diagnosis in an individual with clinical or radiological evidence of recurrent sterile osteomyelitis and chronic anaemia.
