Abstract

Behcet’s syndrome (BS) is a variable vessel vasculitis with multi-organ involvement. Recurrent episodes of oral and genital ulcers, papulopustular and erythema nodosum-like skin lesions, and arthritis are relatively more frequent, whereas uveitis, venous and arterial lesions, nervous system, and gastrointestinal involvement are less common, but are severe manifestations. The frequency of gastrointestinal involvement shows important variation between countries as more common in the Far East and the United States, and much less common in Turkey and the Middle East. The main clinical signs of gastrointestinal Behcet’s disease include abdominal pain, diarrhea, blood in the stool, fever, and weight loss. Ulcers seen in the terminal ileum, cecum, and ascending colon are common endoscopic findings. Herein, we presented the positron emission tomography/ magnetic resonance imaging findings of gastrointestinal involvement in BS.

Özet

Behçet sendromu (BS) multi-organ tutulumu ile seyreden bir değişken damar vaskülitidir. Tekrarlayan oral ve genital ülserler, papülopüstüler ve eritema nodozum benzeri deri lezyonları ve artrit epizodları nispeten daha sık görülürken, üveit, venöz ve arteriyel lezyonlar, sinir sistemi tutulumu ve gastrointestinal tutulum daha az yaygın olmakla birlikte şiddetli belirtilerdir. Gastrointestinal tutulum sıklığı ülkeler arasında farklılık göstermekte olup, Uzak Doğu ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde daha sık görülürken, Türkiye ve Orta Doğu’da daha nadir görülmektedir. Gastrointestinal Behçet hastalığının başlıca klinik bulguları karın ağrısı, ishal, kanlı dışkılama, ateş ve kilo kaybıdır. Terminal ileum, çekum ve çıkan kolonda görülen ülserler ise sık görülen endoskopik bulgulardır. Bu olgu sunumunda, gastrointestinal BS’nin, daha önce yayınlanmamış, pozitron emisyon tomografisi/ manyetik rezonans görüntüleme bulgularını göstermeyi hedefliyoruz.
