Abstract:
Behcet′s disease is a chronic systemic vasculitis with unknown etiology that can involve multiple organs. Behcet′s disease with predominant gastrointestinal manifestations is diagnosed with intestinal Behcet′s disease. Severe complications such as gastrointestinal massive hemorrhage, perforation and obstruction may occur in intestinal Behcet′s disease. If not treated in time, they are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Here, we will review the lesion distribution, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and disease activity of intestinal Behcet′s disease for better understanding of clinicians.
