Painful ulcerations in the mouth, genital sores, arthritis and inflammation of the parts of the eye are some of its common symptoms. There is no known cause of it. However, it is attributed to certain genetic factors. Diagnosis is mainly based on the assessment of mouth sores, genital ulcers, skin lesions and ocular inflammatory conditions. Other diagnostic methods include slit lamp examination, fundoscopic examination, magnetic resonance imaging, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, etc. The treatment of Behcet's disease is designed to ease symptoms, reduce inflammation and control the immune system. High-dose corticosteroid therapy, anti-TNF therapy, thalidomide, IVIG, etc. may be used for the management of this condition. This book explores all the important aspects of Behcet's disease in the present day scenario. It includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to the diagnosis and treatment of Behcet's disease. For all those who are interested in Behcet's disease, this book can prove to be an essential guide.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The expanded second edition of this important work provides an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of Behçet syndrome. New and updated chapters focus on recent advances in the areas of pathogenesis, the microbiome, genetics and epigenetics, clustering of symptoms, disease assessment and new treatment options. The book examines how these developments have changed the way physicians approach diagnosis, treatment, and management of Behçet patients. It also analyzes the wide variety of clinical manifestations of the disease including mucocutaneous lesions, intraocular inflammation, central nervous system involvement, deep vein thrombosis and other forms of major vascular disease. Building on the success of its predecessor, the Second Edition of Behçet Syndrome is an invaluable resource for physicians, residents, fellows, and graduate students in rheumatology, dermatology, ophthalmology, neurology, gastroenterology, and internal medicine.
