Abstract:
Behcet's disease with aortic regurgitation as its initial or prominent manifestation is relatively rare. The prognosis of these patients is poor and the death rate is high. Perivalvular leakage and pseudoaneurysm often occur after surgery due to clinicians failed to diagnose Behcet's disease before surgery . At present, the etiology of the disease is not clear , and there is lack of experience and consensus in drug control, selection of operation timing and methods, or prediction of postoperative complications. This review summarizes the pathophysiological changes, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment methods and prognosis of the disease, with a view to improve the level of cognition and treatment of this disease and improving the quality of life of patients.
