Clinical implications of Vasculitis associated with familial Mediterranean fever: a comparative study in childhood
The coexistence of vasculitis in FMF likely reflects shared inflammatory mechanisms rather than coincidence. Vasculitis occurred even in patients with milder MEFV genotypes, suggesting an enhanced proinflammatory milieu. Early recognition of vasculitis in FMF may influence therapeutic strategies and improve outcomes.
