- Abstract
FMF is an autoinflammatory disorder characterized by inflammation of the serous membranes, such as peritoneum, pleura and pericardium, accompanied by fever and arthritis. Explanation of the relationship between FMF and cardiovascular risk is important for reducing the increasing mortality and morbidity risk. We evaluated patients with FMF who were previously referred to the cardiology polyclinic with the complaint of chest pain and carriers of a new and rare mutation for cardiovascular risk. While the cases FMF with only K447M mutation carriers have no cardiovascular risk, the FMF cases with M6694V and R202Q compound mutation have cardiovascular risk. In addition, the FMF cases with 761_764dupCCGC duplication mutations had an increased cardiovascular risk in the early stages of life. Therefore it is important that regular follow-up of FMF patients with mutation carriers in terms of cardiovascular risk is important.
