Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive disease affecting populations surrounding the Mediterranean area. In this case report, we report a Japanese female patient with polymyositis (PM) who presented with periodic fever. Genetic analysis revealed that she had compound heterozygous mutations in exon 2 of the MEFV gene (L110P/E148Q/R202Q). Treatment with colchicines (1.0 mg/day) successfully...
