Investigation Request

This initiative is a collaborative effort between Semmelweis University, our national academic partners, and our industry collaborator. Our goal is to streamline and standardize the identification, referral, genetic testing, and treatment procedures for patients in Hungary who are suspected of having recurrent febrile illnesses associated with autoinflammatory diseases.

All genetic tests are conducted by the Genetic Testing Laboratory at Semmelweis University. We accept samples either directly from the Periodic Fever Outpatient Clinic at the Department of Pediatrics at Semmelweis University, Budapest, or through referrals from rheumatology experts at our partner universities.
