Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated periodic syndrome (TRAPS) is an autosomal-dominantly inherited autoinflammatory disorder caused by mutations in the TNFRSF1A gene. It is characterized by episodes of autoinflammation usually associated with fever, abdominal pain, myalgia, exanthema, arthralgia/arthritis, and ocular involvement. We undertook this study to investigate the prevalence of TRAPS in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) who reported, in addition to their neurologic symptoms, at least 2 other symptoms compatible with TRAPS.
