Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosies (CIPA) is one of the exceedingly rare
hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathies (HSAN). There are five types of HSAN
according to hereditary transmission, natural history, clinical manifestations, and
pathologic findings. The CIPA corresponds to type IV and is characterized by episodes of
recurrent fever with generalized anhidrosis, insensitivity to pain and temperature with
self-multilation, and mental retardation.
