Abstract

An Israeli study previously showed that dissociation between normal C-reactive protein (CRP) and elevated serum amyloid A (SAA) could be observed in Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF). Considering that elevated SAA is predictive for AA amyloidosis, this study suggested that SAA could be a better tool in the diagnosis and therapeutic management of FMF.
