MeSH Behçet disease (Behçet's syndrome, Morbus Behçet , silk road disease) (pronounced /bɛˈtʃɛt/ ) is a form of vasculitis that can lead to ulceration and other lesions. It can be interpreted as a chronic disturbance in the body’s immune system . This system, which normally protects the body against infections through controlled inflammation , becomes overactive and produces unpredictable outbreaks of exaggerated inflammation. This extra inflammation affects blood vessels , usually the small ones. As a result, symptoms occur wherever there is a patch of inflammation, and can be anywhere where there is a blood supply. The etiology is not well-defined, but it is characterized by inflammation of the blood vessels. Although sometimes erroneously referred to as a "diagnosis of exclusion," the diagnosis can be reached by pathologic examination of the affected areas.

In addition, a patient must also meet two of the following four criteria for Behcet’s disease: recurrent genital ulcerations, eye lesions (uveitis or retinal vasculitis), skin lesions (erythema nodosum, lesions, acne), and or positive "pathergy test".

18. Clinical Manifestations Of Beh�et's Disease Oral ulcerations are encountered in almost every Beh et patients. However it is known that 13% of patients manifest other signs of the disease but not oral ulcerations. http://www.hulusibehcet.net/manifest.htm

Oral Ulcers (Aphthae) Oral ulcerations are encountered in almost every Beh�et patients. However it is known that 1-3% of patients manifest other signs of the disease but not oral ulcerations. These lesions are mostly the first signs of the disease. Patients with only oral lesions for years are not rare. Although in most of the times the oral lesions in Beh�et�s syndrome can not be differentiated from the common recurrent oral ulcers, there are some differences such as multiplicity in number and higher frequency of recurrences. Aphthous lesions in Beh�et�s disease recur with a frequency of once or twice a month and heals in few days to one week. The nourishment of the patient may be impaired due to the fact that the oral lesions are several in number and sometimes painful. Genital Ulcers Genital lesions appear as small red elevated acne-like lesions and evolve to a slow healing punched-out-like lesions. They mostly heal with a residual scar. In the figure on the left, a post lesional scar is shown. Compared to the oral lesions, genital ulcers are fewer in number, and it takes a longer time for them to heal. In Beh�et�s syndrome, similar lesions can also be observed in other body parts besides the genital area. These lesions can appear after the ulceration of the acne like lesions in skin folder such as the armpits and the groin.
