Schnitzler Syndrome Presenting as a Fever of Unknown Origin with Elevated Alkaline Phosphatase Levels

Schnitzler syndrome (SchS) is a rare, acquired, autoinflammatory disease that is sometimes associated with a fever of unknown origin (FUO). Elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP) stemming from abnormal bone remodeling is a characteristic laboratory finding of SchS and is included in the diagnostic crit...

description Schnitzler syndrome (SchS) is a rare, acquired, autoinflammatory disease that is sometimes associated with a fever of unknown origin (FUO). Elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP) stemming from abnormal bone remodeling is a characteristic laboratory finding of SchS and is included in the diagnostic criteria. However, its utility as a clue to the diagnosis of SchS has been under-emphasized. We herein report a case of SchS presenting with a FUO and highly elevated ALP concentration, which led to repeated, unnecessary liver biopsies.
