| Abstract: |
The article discusses the importance of extended vascular screening in asymptomatic Behçet's disease patients with previously diagnosed vascular involvement or unexplained inflammatory response. It highlights the various manifestations of Behçet's disease, such as mucocutaneous symptoms, ocular, vascular, gastrointestinal, and neurological manifestations. The text emphasizes the need for early detection and monitoring of vascular disease in Behçet's patients, especially in high-risk populations, to prevent severe complications like Budd–Chiari syndrome and arterial thrombosis/aneurysms. The authors recommend close follow-up and screening for suspected symptoms in young male patients with a severe mucocutaneous course, as well as screening for other vascular regions in patients with a history of vascular involvement.
