Özet
The arthritis of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is characterized either by repeated attacks of synovitis and polyserositis of short duration or, less commonly, by protracted monoarthritis that may persist for many weeks or months. Sacroiliac joint involvement in FMF is reported to be rare and limited to a few number of series. It is still controversial that seronegative spondyloarthropathy (SNSA) seen in FMF indicates a SNSA being musculoskeletal component of FMF or just an accompaniment. We present a FMF case who had protracted arthritis, inflammatory back pain and sacroiliitis refractory to colchicine treatment. The findings of the patient could only be relieved by spesific SNSA treatment suggesting that SNSA may be a manifestation of FMF.
