Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: Enthesitis-related arthritis (ERA), is a complex genetic disease. Although HLA-B27 is well established, it does not explain all the genetic load in ERA. Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), caused by mutations in the MEFV gene, is a frequent autoinflammatory disorder in the eastern Mediterranean. METHODS: We investigated the clinical and imaging features of 53 ERA patients, as well as the frequency of...
