<p>Systemic capillary leak syndrome (Clarkson disease) is an ultra-rare disease of unknown etiology. Patients experienced transient and recurrent episodes of hypotensive shock and massive peripheral edema due to plasma extravasation, often precipitated by minor viral infections. Disease onset occurs most frequently in middle age, and there is no family history. More than 90% of patients with the disease have monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS). The goal of the study is to determine pathogenic mechanisms and identify genetic underpinnings of the disease. Toward this end, we performed whole genome sequencing (WGS).</p>
