Familial granulomatous arthritis (Blau syndrome) with granulomatous renal lesions.

Abstract excerpt

Blau syndrome is a granulomatous disease of the skin, eyes, and joints, usually without visceral involvement. It is inherited in a autosomal dominant manner. The Blau susceptibility locus has been mapped to chromosome 16 p 12-q21. A recent report has added liver granulomata. We describe a family with Blau syndrome in whom 1 member had renal interstitial granulomata.
