摘要：
The authors report a case of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) in a Turkish patient. FMF is characterised by paroxysmal attacks of fever, peritonitis and/or pleuritis or arthritis. FMF is almost exclusively confined to populations of Mediterranean origin and it is often familial. The diagnosis is mainly clinical. Recently an enhanced dopamine beta-hydroxylase (DBH) activity was described as a diagnostic test. We confirmed this in our patient. FMF was successfully treated by chronic colchicine therapy: 1-2 mg daily, which reduced DBH activity to normal levels.
