Polyarteritis nodosa in case of familial Mediterranean fever.
Gökçe İ, Altuntaş Ü, Filinte D, Alpay H. Polyarteritis nodosa in case of familial Mediterranean fever. Turk J Pediatr 2018; 60: 326-330. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurrent self-limited attacks of fever accompanied by peritonitis, pleuritis, and arthritis. Protracted febrile myalgia syndrome (PFMS) is a rare form of vasculitic disease which is an uncommon dramatic manifestation of FMF, characterized by severe crippling myalgia and high fever. Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic necrotizing vasculitis affecting medium or small arteries. It is rarely observed in children, but its incidence increases in the presence of FMF. In this article we described a 14-year-old child diagnosed with FMF associated with PAN. Physicians should be aware of this possible association.
