Abstract
In a family four sisters have suffered, the oldest two for nearly 20 yr, from recurring attacks of abdominal pain and fever of unknown etiology. Clinical similarity to familial Mediterranean fever is striking. However, they all have a segmentation arrest of granulocytes, which resembles the Pelger-Huet anomaly. It seems that the association is more than a mere coincidence.Keywords
