Familial episodic pain syndrome (FEPS) encompasses a group of non-inflammatory, paroxysmal pain syndromes primarily affecting the distal extremities. These syndromes can be classified into three types based on the pathogenic gene involved: FEPS1, caused by transient receptor potential cation channel (TRPA1) gene mutation; FEPS2, due to sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 10A (SCN10A) gene mutation; and FEPS3, resulting from sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 11A (SCN11A) gene mutation.
