Abstract
Objectives: Familial Mediterranean Fever FMF is an autosomal recessive inflammatory disease characterised by recurrent involvement of serous membranes. It has been shown that the mean platelet volume MPV could be used as a marker in many inflammatory diseases. In this study, we investigated the genetic mutation in children with FMF and changes in MPV in attack and attack-free periods. Patients and Methods: The study included 110 children diagnosed with FMF based on the Tel-Hashomer Criteria. Demographic features, results of genetic analyses, complete blood count parameters, MPV levels, erythrocyte sedimentation rate ESR , C-reactive protein CRP results were evaluated retrospectively. Data of the patients were recorded separately based on the acute attack and attack-free periods under treatment. Results: The mean platelet volume was found to be 8,55±1,51 fL in the attack period and 9,61±1,18 fL in the attack-free period. The mean platelet volume was significantly lower in patients with an attack period compared to the patients at an attack-free period p=0.000 . The platelet and leukocyte count, ESR, CRP were statistically significantly higher in the attack period compared to the attack-free period p=0.000 . Conclusion: The mean platelet volume is decreased in patients with attack period and it may be a useful parameter in determining timing the attack. It is important that clinicians use this parameter when evaluating the hemogram result

Abstract
Amaç: Ailevi Akdeniz Ateşi AAA , otozomal resesif geçiş gösteren inflamatuar bir hastalık olup seröz membranların tekrarlayan tutulumu ile karakterizedir. İnflamatuvar hastalıkların pek çoğunda ortalama trombosit hacminin OTH belirteç olarak kullanılabileceği gösterilmiştir. Bu çalışmada AAA’lı çocuklarda genetik mutasyon ile hastalığın ataklı ve ataksız dönemlerinde ortalama trombosit hacmindeki değişiklikleri inceledik. Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya Tel-Hashomer kriterlerine göre AAA tanısı almış 110 çocuk dahil edildi. Hastaların demografik özellikleri, genetik tarama sonuçları, tam kan sayımı parametreleri, OTH düzeyleri, eritrosit sedimantasyon hızı ESH , C-Reaktif protein CRP değerleri retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi. Hastaların verileri tedavi altında ataklı ve ataksız dönemlerine göre ayrı ayrı kaydedildi. Bulgular: Ortalama trombosit hacmi ataklı dönemde 8,55±1,51 fL iken ataksız dönemde 9,61±1,18 fL saptandı. Hastaların ataklı dönem OTH düzeylerinde, ataksız döneme göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı düşüktü p=0.000 . Trombosit ve beyazküre sayıları, ESH ve CRP seviyeleri atak döneminde ataksız döneme göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı yüksekti p=0.000 . Sonuç: Ortalama trombosit hacmi hastaların atak döneminde düşmektedir ve bu atakları saptama
