Discussion: Here we report a second case of super-refractory status epilepticus due to
FIRES responding to anakinra, and the first such case in an adult patient. Anakinra was well-
tolerated with few side effects. Our results are further evidence for the autoinflammatory
nature of FIRES, and support the use of anakinra early in the treatment to prevent long-term
sequelae.
