Overview
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Familial Mediterranean fever was first described in a Jewish schoolgirl by Janeway and Mosenthal in 1908.[1]
- In 1945, Dr. Siegal, an american allergy specialist, published a case report under the title of benign paroxysmal peritonitis and defined this disorder.[2]
- In 1948, Dr. Reimann, first used the term periodic fever.
- In 1955, Dr. Heller called this disorder familial Mediterranean fever, which refers to its high prevalence in this region and the key presenting feature of periodic fever.[3]
- In 1997, MEFV mutations were first implicated in the parthenogenesis of familial Mediterranean fever.[4]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- The disease was life-threatening before the introduction of colchicine in 1972.[5]
