We reviewed the medical records of patients with periodic fever, aphthosis, pharyngitis, and adenitis (PFAPA) to investigate the clinical course, treatment response, and association with MEFV gene mutation. Familial Mediterranean fever should be considered in patients with PFAPA who do not respond to adenotonsillectomy.
我们回顾了周期性发热、口疮性口炎、咽炎和腺炎(PFAPA)患者的病历,以研究其临床病程、治疗反应以及与MEFV基因突变的关联。对于接受腺样体扁桃体切除术无效的PFAPA患者,应考虑家族性地中海热。
