Synchronous disease onset and flares in siblings with PFAPA

Kristen L. Dammeyer et al.

Summary: This is the first report of siblings with near simultaneous onset of periodic fever, aphthous stomatitis, pharyngitis, and cervical adenitis (PFAPA) followed by synchronous disease flares. The flares were characterized by fever, aphthous ulceration, cervical lymphadenitis, and the absence of infection. Tonsillectomy resulted in dramatic resolution of episodes in the older sibling.
