characterised by recurrent attacks of fever and serositis&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> The identification of mutations in the MEFV gene has been of major assistance in early diagnosis in the majority of cases&#46;

originally from Armenia&#44; with no relevant personal history and a family history of father with nephropathy&#44; who died at 50 years of age&#44; and maternal aunt also with nephropathy&#46; The patient was assessed for nephrotic syndrome in the nephrology department&#46; In the assessment the patient described&#44; in addition to oedemae in the lower extremities and palpebrae&#44; nonspecific lumbar pain&#46; During the assessment for nephrotic syndrome&#44; the patient required numerous admissions for hydropic decompensation&#46; A renal biopsy was carried out&#44; with the discovery of eight glomeruli per section plane&#46; These all showed a massive and diffuse deposit of congo red-positive amorphous&#44; acellular and eosinophilous matter &#40;figure 1A&#41;&#46; The immunohistochemical study showed congo red positivity for AA &#40;figure 1B&#41;&#44; this being the definitive diagnosis of amyloidosis AA&#46; Given the family history of nephropathy&#44; the patient&#191;s country of origin and the presence of secondary amyloidosis&#44; a genetic study was carried out which showed the presence of M680I and M694V mutations in heterozygosis in the MEFV gene associated with FMF&#46; Treatment with colchicine was started at a dose of 0&#46;5mg every 8hrs&#47;day and infliximab at a dose of 5mg&#47;kg IV&#44; in basal form&#44; for two weeks&#44; and thereafter every two months&#46; The patient&#191;s subsequent progress after establishing the treatment regime is detailed in table 1&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Discussion</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">FMF manifests clinically in the form of attacks of fever&#44; peritonitis&#44; pleuritis or polyarthritis&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> As a consequence of these inflammatory episodes&#44; development of renal amyloidosis is common&#44; worsening the prognosis&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> Gingold-Belfer et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span> describe the case of a female patient in whom nephrotic syndrome was the primary manifestation of FMF&#44; detected via the presence of an M694V mutation&#46; Similarly&#44; in our patient the diagnosis of FMF was also made via an assessment for nephrotic syndrome&#44; since her symptoms did not relate to the classic symptoms of FMF and thus its presence was not suspected&#46; In the case which we have described&#44; our attention was drawn to the already advanced stage of the disease at diagnosis&#44; with findings of severe nephrotic syndrome and AA amyloid deposits in the kidney&#46; Furthermore&#44; the presence of two mutations was detected&#44; one of which &#40;M694V&#41; is the most common and that which is found in the most severe cases<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> such as ours&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">With regard to treatment&#44; colchicine is the drug typically used to treat this condition&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> In cases of intolerance &#40;diarrhoea&#41; or inefficacy&#44; other therapeutic options are considered&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">5 </span>TNF-alpha is a proinflammatory cytokine which can play a role in FMF as well as the development of secondary amyloidosis&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span> TNF inhibitors can therefore be of use in FMF&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span> This is reflected in some publications&#44; where it is described how anti-TNF-alphas&#44; including infliximab&#44; reduce the frequency of FMF attacks and&#44; therefore&#44; bring about a recovery from proteinuria&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6&#44;7</span> Considering that our patient did not tolerate antiproteinuric drugs &#40;ACEI&#44; ARA II&#41;&#44; and given the severity of proteinuria and deterioration of renal function&#44; as well as the biopsy findings which demonstrated amyloidosis&#44; we decided to use a combined treatment of colchicine and infliximab to assess her progress&#46; This combined therapy has achieved a subjective improvement in the patient &#40;there has been no hydropic decompensation throughout the year&#44; nor admission for any other motive&#41;&#44; as well as a recovery of renal function and a stabilisation in the proteinuria with an increase of albumin in the plasma&#46; It is possible that this only partial response which we have obtained with combined therapy could be due to the fact that the disease presented itself without the typical symptoms&#44; and it was its first complication &#40;renal amyloidosis&#41; that allowed us to reach a diagnosis&#44; indicating that the disease was already advanced at the time of diagnosis&#46; However&#44; it could also be due to the fact that the patient was a carrier of the M694V mutation&#44; which is associated with the most severe cases&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">With regard to the tolerance and safety of infliximab&#44; we have detected no adverse effect with this medication or any infectious complications during the period of its administration&#44; indicating a good level of tolerance&#46; In conclusion&#44; an unusual presentation of FMF could delay diagnosis and&#44; therefore&#44; worsen the prognosis in these patients&#46; For those cases in which amyloidosis is the manner through which a diagnosis of FMF is reached&#44; a combined therapy of colchicine and infliximab could be of use at least to achieve a stabilisation of the disease&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a href="grande&#47;14218078&#95;f1a&#95;374&#46;jpg" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><img src="14218078_f1a_374.jpg"></img></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Figure 1a&#46;

originally from Armenia&#44; with no relevant personal history and a family history of father with nephropathy&#44; who died at 50 years of age&#44; and maternal aunt also with nephropathy&#46; The patient was assessed for nephrotic syndrome in the nephrology department&#46; In the assessment the patient described&#44; in addition to oedemae in the lower extremities and palpebrae&#44; nonspecific lumbar pain&#46; During the assessment for nephrotic syndrome&#44; the patient required numerous admissions for hydropic decompensation&#46; A renal biopsy was carried out&#44; with the discovery of eight glomeruli per section plane&#46; These all showed a massive and diffuse deposit of congo red-positive amorphous&#44; acellular and eosinophilous matter &#40;figure 1A&#41;&#46; The immunohistochemical study showed congo red positivity for AA &#40;figure 1B&#41;&#44; this being the definitive diagnosis of amyloidosis AA&#46; Given the family history of nephropathy&#44; the patient&#191;s country of origin and the presence of secondary amyloidosis&#44; a genetic study was carried out which showed the presence of M680I and M694V mutations in heterozygosis in the MEFV gene associated with FMF&#46; Treatment with colchicine was started at a dose of 0&#46;5mg every 8hrs&#47;day and infliximab at a dose of 5mg&#47;kg IV&#44; in basal form&#44; for two weeks&#44; and thereafter every two months&#46; The patient&#191;s subsequent progress after establishing the treatment regime is detailed in table 1&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><span class="elsevierStyleBold">Discussion</span></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">FMF manifests clinically in the form of attacks of fever&#44; peritonitis&#44; pleuritis or polyarthritis&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span> As a consequence of these inflammatory episodes&#44; development of renal amyloidosis is common&#44; worsening the prognosis&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span> Gingold-Belfer et al&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span> describe the case of a female patient in whom nephrotic syndrome was the primary manifestation of FMF&#44; detected via the presence of an M694V mutation&#46; Similarly&#44; in our patient the diagnosis of FMF was also made via an assessment for nephrotic syndrome&#44; since her symptoms did not relate to the classic symptoms of FMF and thus its presence was not suspected&#46; In the case which we have described&#44; our attention was drawn to the already advanced stage of the disease at diagnosis&#44; with findings of severe nephrotic syndrome and AA amyloid deposits in the kidney&#46; Furthermore&#44; the presence of two mutations was detected&#44; one of which &#40;M694V&#41; is the most common and that which is found in the most severe cases<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span> such as ours&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">With regard to treatment&#44;

where it is described how anti-TNF-alphas&#44; including infliximab&#44; reduce the frequency of FMF attacks and&#44; therefore&#44; bring about a recovery from proteinuria&#46;<span class="elsevierStyleSup">6&#44;7</span> Considering that our patient did not tolerate antiproteinuric drugs &#40;ACEI&#44; ARA II&#41;&#44; and given the severity of proteinuria and deterioration of renal function&#44; as well as the biopsy findings which demonstrated amyloidosis&#44; we decided to use a combined treatment of colchicine and infliximab to assess her progress&#46; This combined therapy has achieved a subjective improvement in the patient &#40;there has been no hydropic decompensation throughout the year&#44; nor admission for any other motive&#41;&#44; as well as a recovery of renal function and a stabilisation in the proteinuria with an increase of albumin in the plasma&#46; It is possible that this only partial response which we have obtained with combined therapy could be due to the fact that the disease presented itself without the typical symptoms&#44; and it was its first complication &#40;renal amyloidosis&#41; that allowed us to reach a diagnosis&#44; indicating that the disease was already advanced at the time of diagnosis&#46; However&#44; it could also be due to the fact that the patient was a carrier of the M694V mutation&#44; which is associated with the most severe cases&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara">With regard to the tolerance and safety of infliximab&#44; we have detected no adverse effect with this medication or any infectious complications during the period of its administration&#44; indicating a good level of tolerance&#46; In conclusion&#44; an unusual presentation of FMF could delay diagnosis and&#44; therefore&#44; worsen the prognosis in these patients&#46; For those cases in which amyloidosis is the manner through which a diagnosis of FMF is reached&#44; a combined therapy of colchicine and infliximab could be of use at least to achieve a stabilisation of the disease&#46;</p><p class="elsevierStylePara"><a href="grande&#47;14218078&#95;f1a&#95;374&#46;jpg" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"><img src="14218078_f1a_374.jpg"></img></a></p><p class="elsevierStylePara">Figure 1a&#46;
