Background: Chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) is Data about incidence, prevalence and clinical and genetic features of chronic non-bacterial osteomyelitis (CNO) in Russia is scarce. Objectives: The aim of our study was to evaluate clinical and genetic peculiarities of CNO in Russia. Methods: The diagnosis of CNO was made with criteria, proposed by Jansson [1, 2], after the exclusion of other causes of bone disease. Our cohort consists of three main subtypes: i) early-onset ( Results: We selected a subgroup of the CNO patients having the following features: 1) early disease onset ( In the subgroup patients with early onset we performed genetic tests. Rare variants of PID genes were detected in 7/22 (32%) patients. Mutations affecting the genes previously associated with CNO were found only in two patients: one of them carried heterozygous variant IL1RN c.170G>T (p.C57F) and another had IL1RN c.512T>C (p.V171A). No mutation of LPIN2 was revealed. Other detected variants included one pathogenic MEFV p.M694V mutation in heterozygous state and a number of VUS in CD40LG, NLRP12, CR2, NLRP3, IL12B, PLCG2, SH3BP2, CARD14, IRF8, CASP10 and NFKB1A genes. Conclusion: We have found the unique regional subtype of CNO with early-onset in North Caucasus region with at least 10 times higher prevalence. We have not yet seen similar patients in other nationalities of Russia. Mutations in known genes were detected only in a minor fraction of CNO patients from Dagestan and Chechnya.
