Tóm tắt

Abstract: Behçet's disease is a chronic, relapsing, idiopathic, multisystem condition characterized by mucocutaneous, ocular, gastrointestinal, articular, vascular, urogenital, and neurologic involvement. Usually the onset occurs between 20 and 30 years of age; it is very uncommon in children. We analyzed 40cases of childhood‐onset Behçet's disease. The male: female ratio was 0·67 the most frequent major sign was oral ulceration, appearing inall patients. Other major sings were genital ulcers (33 patients) skin lesions (29), and ocular lesions (11). the average time interval between the initial oral ulceration and the second major manifestation, the third and fourth features rapidly developed within one to two years. The most frequent minor sign was arthritis, occurring in 11of 40 patients. Intestinal, neurologic, and renal involvement was also present. From our results, we concluded that oral ulceration, which is the most common initia manifestation, should not be neglected in children, since it may signal Behçet's disease.
