Abstract
To provide an up-to-date approach to diagnosis and management of FMF patients. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the most common monogenic autoinflammatory disease and prototype monogenic autoinflammatory recurrent fever syndrome. Although it is one of the well-known autoinflammatory disorders, evaluations in the etiopathogenesis and genetics of the disease have shown that FMF is more complex than previously known. Since the number of reported MEFV variants increased, evaluating the genetic test results has become more challenging. Here, we suggest a roadmap for clinicians to facilitate their decisions regarding diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up in FMF patients with different genotype-phenotype combinations. The correct interpretation of genetic test results is crucial for timely diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and follow-up of FMF patients.
