Behcet’s syndrome is among the autoimmune diseases, a condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues in the body, leading to inflammation of the blood vessels. Inflammation thus can take place at any part of the body and elicit different symptoms. The exact cause of this condition has not been determined; nonetheless, it is thought that this might be due to genetic or environmental factors.

When discussing Behçets syndrome the symptoms can appear in ways and their severity may vary from person to person or even from one stage of the disease presentation, to another. Typical symptoms encompass;

Diagnostic and Treatment Services are available at Felix Hospital

Our specialists at Felix Hospital rely upon clinical assessments and patient medical histories to identify the condition since there isn't a definitive test available for this disease. Typical diagnostic approaches involve clinical examinations and the process of ruling out other potential illnesses.  

• During the check-up process, signs of a potential relapse or any symptoms such as ulcers and skin lesions are examined along with checking for inflammation in the eyes.
