Multimodality imaging of constrictive pericarditis in H syndrome

Combination of four features of SLC29A3 spectrum disorder in a child: A case report

SLC29A3 spectrum disorder, also known as histiocytosis-lymphadenopathy plus syndrome (HLPS), presents a wide variety of multi-systemic manifestations that can be mistaken for other conditions. Herein, we report a 9-year-old girl who presented with a complex clinical presentation since birth, including chronic generalized lymphadenopathy in association with hepatosplenomegaly, short stature, flexion contractures, hearing loss, hyperpigmentation, and heart anomalies. She was ultimately diagnosed with the SLC29A3 spectrum disorder.

Case report of H-syndrome with a review from a rheumatological perspective

A woman in her 20s, symptomatic since the age of 4 with short stature, hearing loss, skin hyperpigmentation and induration over the medial aspect of the thigh, hypertrichosis, histiocytes on biopsy, lymphadenopathy, dilated scleral vessels, pancreatic exocrine deficiency, pericardial thickening, swelling of the eyelids and resistant retroperitoneal fibrosis. Whole-genome sequencing showed a mutation in SLC29A3, confirming 'H'-syndrome. She is on steroids and methotrexate. This case highlights the rheumatological mimics of this rare disorder.
