Abstract

Reference is made to a new autoinflammatory condition of acquired etiology, named VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic). This syndrome is due to mutations of the ubiquitin enzyme 1 (UBA1) and is most commonly diagnosed in men older than 50 years. Medical personnel of aging populations are alerted, in particular, Cuba.
