Alternative titles and symbols : Retroperitoneal fibrosis, familial; Mediastinal fibrosis, familial;
Description : Comings et al. (1967) reported 2 brothers, offspring of a first-cousin marriage, who
had different combinations of retroperitoneal fibrosis, mediastinal fibrosis, sclerosing
cholangitis, Riedel sclerosing thyroiditis, and pseudotumor of the orbit. One of the
brothers had fibrotic contracture of the fingers. Goldbach et al. (1983) reported
mediastinal and retroperitoneal fibrosis in 2 sisters with seronegative spondylarthropathy.
Neither was HLA-B27-positive. Phills et al. (1973) reported retroperitoneal fibrosis
in 3 sibs. Zabetakis et al. (1979) raised the possibility that retroperitoneal fibrosis
is a manifestation of a collagen vascular disease. *FIELD* RF 1. Comings, D. E.; Skubi,
