p.RQ92 mutation associated with amyloidosis.

Secondary amyloidosis can be found in some monogenic autoinflammatory diseases. In this study we present an 83-year-old man with no relevant medical history who presented with iron deficiency anaemia. In the study, a gastroscopy was performed with duodenum biopsy showing secondary AA-type amyloidosis. Genetic analyses of monogenic autoinflammatory diseases revealed the heterozygous p.R92Q variant in the TNFRSF1A gene, with negative results in the complementary tests for other causes of amyloidosis. In TRAPS, secondary amyloidosis has usually been associated with mutations affecting cysteine residues, but until now no association has been demonstrated with the p.RQ92 variant. Secondary amyloidosis may be present in carriers of the p.RQ92 variant, therefore it is important to diagnose it to prevent possible complications.
