DEAR EDITOR, We read with great interest the report of a case of CANDLE (chronic atypical neutrophilic dermatosis with lipodystrophy and elevated temperature) syndrome by Kluk et al. 1 As they described in the manuscript, CANDLE syndrome shares clinical manifestations and genetic origin with JMP (joint contractures, muscle atrophy, microcytic anemia and panniculitis-induced lipodystrophy) syndrome and Nakajo–Nishimura syndrome. However, they diagnosed their Bangladeshi case as CANDLE syndrome without any clear differentiation. Because the patient was the first Bengalese case with a novel mutation of the responsible PSMB8 gene (M117V), we believe that her classification into any of the three presented syndromes should have been carefully determined. However, no diagnostic criteria have been established for clinical diagnosis of CANDLE syndrome. Although the designation ‘CANDLE’was originally defined for a kind of neutrophilic dermatosis, the histological picture of the Bengalese patient showed no abundant neutrophilic infiltration and rather resembles that of Nakajo–Nishimura syndrome. 2, 3Among eight characteristic features, five of which have been proposed to be required for definitive diagnosis of Nakajo–Nishimura syndrome, only four (autosomal recessive inheritance, haunting nodular erythema, repetitive spiking fever, and partial lipomuscular atrophy) were present and one (hepatosplenomegaly) was absent in the Bengalese case, whereas the remaining three features (pernio-like rash; long, clubbed fingers and basal ganglia calcification) were not reported and the differential diagnosis was prevented. 1, 3 Seizures, which have been specifically observed in JMP syndrome, were not reported, either. 1, 4 In 2010, the Spanish dermatologist Torrelo and colleagues reported on four juvenile patients who presented with earlyonset recurrent fevers, annular violaceous plaques, persistent violaceous eyelid swelling, low body mass and reduced stature, lipodystrophy, hepatomegaly, chronic anaemia, elevated acutephase reactants and raised liver enzymes. 2 Furthermore, there was a characteristic histological feature of lesional skin with infiltrates of atypical mononuclear cells of a myeloid lineage and mature neutrophils. Although these clinical and histological features resemble those of Nakajo–Nishimura syndrome, they could not find any similar cases in the literature and designated this disease as a novel CANDLE syndrome. To our surprise, in the same year, the first PSMB8 mutation (T75M) was identified in another disease–JMP syndrome–which looked similar to but was distinguishable from Nakajo–Nishimura syndrome with the hierarchical cluster analysis of their symptoms. 4, 5 In Japan, there has been a distinct long history of the disease showing the characteristics of both CANDLE and JMP syndromes. The Japanese dermatologist Nakajo first described three familial patients as ‘secondary hypertrophic osteoperiostosis with pernio’in 1939, and Nishimura et al. applied this disease to another three familial cases and suggested its inheritance in 1950. This resulted in the proposal in 1985 of a new entity,‘a syndrome with nodular erythema, elongated and thickened fingers, and emaciation’, according to a review of eleven cases including those reported by Nakajo and Nishimura. 6 Therefore, upon reporting the identification of the distinct PSMB8 mutation (G201V) for these Japanese cases in 2011, the designation ‘Nakajo–Nishimura syndrome’was newly selected for this disease, which was derived from the old registration ORPHA2615 with a description ‘amyotrophy fat tissue anomaly’, in recognition of the pioneers …
