Familial Mediterranean fever is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by recurrent episodes of fever, peritonitis, pleuritis and arthritis. Neurological involvement in FMF is rare but serious. Headache, seizures, demyelinating lesions, stroke, posterior reversible leukoencephalopathy syndrome, aseptic meningitis and cranial neuropathy have been reported in the literature. In this paper, we present a combination of FMF and pseudotumor cerebri in an adult patient.
