Secondary AA amyloidosis is the worst complication of the disease and often determines the prognosis. The MEFV gene, on chromosome 16p13.3, is responsible for the disease and around 30 mutations have been reported to date. Colchicine is the standard FMF treatment today, and prevents both attacks and amyloid deposition in 95% of patients. Here we describe a three-generation Spanish kindred with five family members affected by a severe periodic inflammatory disorder associated with renal AA amyloidosis and colchicine unresponsiveness. Clinical diagnosis of definite FMF disease was made based on the Tel-Hashomer criteria set. Genetic analyses revealed that all subjects were heterozygous for the new H478Y MEFV variant, segregating with the disease. In addition, mutations in the TNFRSF1A and CIAS1/PYPAF1/NALP3 genes, related to the dominantly inherited autoinflammatory periodic syndromes, were ruled out. However, the dominant inheritance of the disease, the long fever episodes with a predominant joint involvement, and the resistance to colchicine in these patients raise the question of whether the periodic syndrome seen in this kindred is a true FMF disease with unusual manifestations or rather another MEFV-associated periodic syndrome. We conclude that the new H478Y MEFV mutation is the dominant pathological variant causing the inflammatory periodic syndrome in this kindred and that full-length analyses of the MEFV gene are needed to obtain an adequate diagnosis of patients with clinical suspicion of a hereditary periodic fever syndrome, especially those from non-ancestral populations."xsd:string |
