We describe a case of RAS-associated autoimmune leukoproliferative disease with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD)-like symptoms, such as recurrent pneumonia, sinusitis, and otitis media, that occurred 7 years after hematopoietic cell transplantation. Whole-exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous CFAP43 nonsense variant. Environmental factors related to hematopoietic cell transplantation may have led to PCD symptoms in this patient with this variant. Genetic screening can help avoid subsequent complications during patient management.

Immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) in children is a rare, severe thrombotic microangiopathy. This condition is characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, severe thrombocytopenia, and organ ischemia due to reduced activity of the von Willebrand factor-cleaving protease ADAMTS13. A retrospective case series evaluating data collected from the medical files of 4 children diagnosed with iTTP. The presented case series depicts a variety of iTTP presentations: 1 case of primary iTTP, 1 case induced by Shiga toxin, 1 associated with RAS-associated autoimmune leukoproliferative disease (RALD), and 1 initial manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Notably, 2 patients recovered without undergoing plasma exchange. Early ADAMTS13 testing in children with unexplained hemolysis or thrombocytopenia is crucial. The diverse underlying causes, including infections and autoimmune disorders, underscore the complexity of iTTP in the pediatric population. These cases highlight the necessity for personalized treatment approaches that consider each patient's unique clinical situation and potential alternatives or modifications to conventional therapeutic regimens.

RAS-associated autoimmune leukoproliferative disease (RALD) is a rare immune dysregulation syndrome caused by somatic gain-of-function mutations of either NRAS or KRAS gene in hematopoietic cells. We describe a 27-year-old patient presenting at 5 months of age with recurrent infections and generalized lymphadenopathy who developed a complex multi-organ autoimmune syndrome with hypogammaglobulinemia, partially controlled with oral steroids, hydroxichloroquine, mofetil mycophenolate and IVIG prophylaxis. Activation of type I interferon pathway was observed in peripheral blood. Since 18 years of age, the patient developed regenerative nodular hyperplasia of the liver evolving into hepatopulmonary syndrome. Whole exome sequencing analysis of the peripheral blood DNA showed the NRAS p.Gly13Asp mutation validated as somatic. Our report highlights the possibility of detecting somatic NRAS gene mutations in patients with inflammatory immune dysregulation and type I interferon activation.
