Familial Mediterranean Fever
- FMF is an inherited autoinflammatory disorder.
- The most relevant complication associated with FMF is the build-up of protein deposits in serum (amyloidosis) severely affecting kidney and other organs.
- Four different mutations in the MEFV gene (encoding the pyrin protein) have been identified as causes for the development of FMF.
- Prophylactic treatment with colchicine.
