  • Title: [Behçet's disease revealed by deep vein thrombosis in an HIV-1-infected patient].
    Author: Marih L, Sodqi M, Marhoum El Filali K, Chakib A.
    Journal: J Mal Vasc; 2012 Dec; 37(6):320-2. PubMed ID: 23068309.
    Abstract:
    Behçet's disease is a multisystemic vasculitis characterized by the association of recurrent oral and genital ulcers with systemic involvements, particularly ocular, nervous and vascular manifestations. The association of Behçet's disease and aids/HIV infection is rare. The role of HIV infection in the pathomechanism of both diseases is unclear. We report a 28-year-old HIV-positive patient who presented Behçet's disease complicated by deep vein thrombosis and left lateral sinus thrombosis. This rare association raises questions about the etiopathogenic process and therapeutic management.
