Abstract

The present study aimed to explore the clinical manifestations of Behçet's disease in six patients using the criteria of the International Study Group for Behçet's Disease. The primary objectives were to determine the prevalence of oral aphthosis and assess potential ocular and vascular complications. For a retrospective analysis of six diagnosed Behçet's disease patients, a comprehensive clinical examination, Pathergy tests, and various biological assessments were performed. Additionally, eye examinations, slit lamp studies, and radiological investigations were carried out to evaluate ocular and vascular involvement. The results of the study reveal that oral aphthosis was present in all patients. Some individuals exhibited ocular and vascular involvement, providing insights into the diverse manifestations of the disease. The conclusions outline the importance of the early diagnosis and comprehensive assessments, that are crucial in identifying potential organ involvement in Behçet's disease, contributing to better management and improved patient outcomes.
