Orphan diseases have a prevalence ranging one patient per 10.000 population in the Russian Federation to one per 1500—2000 individuals in Australia and the USA. Many orphan diseases lead to a severe decrease in quality of life and high mortality. In this article, we discuss the problem of early diagnosis in orphan diseases in the Russian Federation, which has lagged behind global trends towards improved recognition and treatment of orphan diseases. We identify the need for improved focus at the level of national healthcare, while discussing relevant issues arising from the international experience. We review national and regional health programs and healthcare practices of Australia, Germany, Denmark, China, Norway, Slovenia, UK, and the United States, with a focus on screening and diagnosis of orphan disease. We also present a review on the state of affairs in the Russian Federation. Orphan diseases are amenable to current molecular-genetic and other diagnostic technologies, including targeted, whole exome and whole genome sequencing (targeted NGS, WES, WGS) using next generation sequencing technologies (next generation sequencing, NGS) and tandem mass spectrometry (TMS, MS/MS). We conclude with a call for major measures aimed at improving the diagnosis of orphan diseases, in particular through the expansion of the neonatal screening program, the creation of a network of orphan disease referral centers, and centralized management of patients registers.
