Abstract

Familial Mediterranean is a genetic health problem inherited through recessive autosomal transmission. It may cause serious long-term morbidity and mortality. The goal of this research is to survey the most widespread MEFV gene mutations in a large population of Egyptian patients suspected of having FMF disease. 2056 patients were tested for the 13 most prevalent types of MEFV mutations found in the basin of the Mediterranean using real-time PCR.
