چکیده
Introduction Familial Mediterranean Fever ( FMF ) is an autosomal recessive inherited disease mostly wide spread in the Mediterranean basin. It is manifested by a fever associated with paroxystic painful attacks. The prognosis is determined by the occurrence of renal amyloidosis. The purpose of our work is to establish a genotypephenotype correlation between the MEFV gene mutation and the expression of the FMF in 10 Moroccan children.

Introduction Autoinflammatory diseases are a group of disorders characterized by seemingly unprovoked inflammation in the absence of high-titer autoantibodies or antigen-specific T-cells. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the archetypal hereditary periodic fever syndrome and autoinflammatory disorder. It is characterized by recurrent selflimiting episodes of fever and painful polyserositis....
