Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-targeted therapies are increasingly used for a rapidly expanding number of rheumatic and autoimmune diseases. With this use and longer follow-up periods of treatment, there are a growing number of reports of the development of autoimmune processes related to anti-TNF agents. Since these drugs are often prescribed to severe rheumatologic patients, there is a controversy about whether the autoimmune diseases that could be related to underlying disease or anti-TNF therapy. We aimed to discuss this subject under the light of literature.

Abstract
Anti-TNF tedavilerin romatolojik ve otoimmün hastalıkların tedavisinde yaygın kullanımı ve uzun dönem takipleri ile birlikte, paradoksal olarak anti-TNF ilişkili otoimmün hastalıklarla ilgili artan sayıda bildiriler olmaktadır. Bu ilaçlar genelde ağır hastalık aktivitesi olan romatolojik hastalarda kullanıldığından, bazı durumlarda bu gelişen hastalıkların altta yatan hastalığa da bağlı olabilmesi ile ilgili çelişkiler bulunmaktadır. Giderek artan vaka serilerinden elde edilen bilgiler ışığında bu konuyu tartışmayı amaçladık
