Abstract
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) has been associated with hematological malignancies but has not been reported in association with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). We hereby describe the first pediatric patient with FMF and stage IIA nodular sclerosis HL. She was treated with prednisone, doxorubicin, vincristine and etoposide (OEPA) being on therapy with colchicine. However, she suffered more than expected treatment-related toxicity attributed either to chemotherapy (severe neutropenia) or colchicine (Abdominal pains and diarrhoea). Colchicine had to be discontinued. In the absence of colchicine, she tolerated very well the second cycle of chemotherapy. Currently, she is in remission at 17 months after her HL diagnosis, and her FMF is under control with colchicine without any signs of toxicity.
