Neuro-Behcet disease is one of the clinical forms of Behcet disease. We report a case of neuro-Behcet disease mimicked a brain tumor. This case was initially considered as a brain tumor from mass lesion with edema at left basal ganglia on radiologic images. The lesion, however, was not neoplasia by pathologic diagnosis. By using steroid therapy, the size had been markedly shrunken on the follow...

Results Fifty six patients were included: 17 CAPS, 4 TRAPS, 5 HIDS, 18 FMF, 6 CRMO, 2 SAPHO and 4 Behcet. The median follow-up period was 2 years (0-14 years). The male/female ratio was 20/36. The median age was 2.5 years at disease onset and 4 years at diagnosis. Family history was positive in 34% of patients. Clinical manifestations included fever (79%), mucocutaneous (61%), musculoskeletal (...

Cyclosporine was suggested recently by Japanese workers to provoke central nervous systems symptoms in Behcet`s disease. We report 2 cases supporting this notion. Our aim is to draw the attention of physicians to such phenomenon as cyclosporine being frequently advocated in the treatment of uveitis due to Behcet`s disease.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate retinal vascular structural change in ocular Behcet's using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and fluorescein angiography (FA). METHODS An analytic cross-sectional study of 37 eyes of 21 Behcet's uveitic patients was performed. Foveal retinal thickness (FRT), perifoveal hypoperfusion areas in superficial capillary plexus (SCP), and deep capillary plexus (DC...

PURPOSE To study the clinical characteristics of a cohort of Spanish patients diagnosed with Behcet disease and who also presented ocular inflammation. METHODS Thirty cases of Behcet disease were studied retrospectively. The authors studied age distribution, distribution by sex, clinical course, laterality, type of uveitis, secondary glaucoma, corneal involvement, hypopyon, iris-lens synechia...

OBJECTIVES Behcet's disease (BD) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by recurrent oral and genital ulcerations and ocular lesions. This multisystemic disorder primarily affects the vascular system. In the present study, we aimed to evaluate vascular endothelial function in patients with Behcet' s disease without vascular involvement. STUDY DESIGN We studied 40 patients with BD (44...

A man visited the emergency room with a headache. Brain computed tomography showed aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and multiple aneurysms. After aneurysm clipping surgery, the patient was discharged. After 5 days, he was admitted to the hospital with skin ulceration and was diagnosed with Behcet syndrome. An angiogram taken 7 weeks after aneurysmal SAH showed intracranial vasospasm. Be...

OBJECTIVE In the present study, subclinical lesion involvement was investigated using the P50 component in Behcet`s patients without neurological manifestation. METHODS We performed this clinical research in Erciyes University, Faculty of Medicine between December 2000 and November 2001. The studies were carried out on 18 Behcet`s patients without neurologic findings and 18 volunteers for con...

Methods We presented a challenging case of vasculitis classified considering the EULAR/PRINTO/PRES c-Takayasu Arteritis criteria of 2008 and the International Criteria for Behcet disease of 2013 (ICBD) Results B. is a ten years old boy born in Columbia. At the age of nine, he presented fever that lasted for about 1 month. In the suspect of Kawasaki disease, he was administered Immunoglobulin, w...
