Special consultation for Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF)

Appointments: Wednesdays & Thursdays, possibly Fridays
To schedule an appointment, call: +49 (0)6221-56 22999

We have been providing FMF consultations for over 10 years, in close collaboration with Prof. E. Ben-Chetrit (Hadassah University, Jerusalem) and the Rheumatology Sections of the Medical and Pediatric Clinics.

FMF is a monogenic autoinflammatory disease, primarily affecting individuals from the Middle East. Early treatment with colchicine prevents complications.

Diagnosis is clinical and based on characteristic symptom recurrence. Genetic testing is recommended when symptoms strongly indicate FMF.
