Özet
Ocak 1988-Mart 1998 tarihleri arasında Uludağ Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi'nde Behçet hastalığı tanısıyla izlenen olgular (n=185) retrospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Arteriyel tutulumu olanlar ve bu olgulara uygulanan farmakolojik ve cerrahi tedavilerle sonuçları değerlendirilmiştir. Toplam 185 olgudan 72'sinde vasküler tutulum saptanmış, 94 vasküler lezyon arasında 20 olguda 24 arteriyel lezyon belirlenmiştir. Arteriyel tutulumu olan 6 olguda toplam 9 cerrahi girişim yapılmıştır. Pulmoner arter anevrizması bulunan olgulardan ikisi cerrahi sonrası, üçü ise ilaç tedavisiyle izlenirken rüptür sonucu kaybedilmiştir. Periferik arter oklüzyon ve anevrizmalarına uygulanan baypaslarda ise erken dönemde tatminkar sonuçlar elde edilmekle beraber geç dönemde oklüzyon ya da yalancı anevrizma geliştiği görülmüştür.
