ABSTRACT

Background: Behçet’s disease (BD) is a multisystem vasculitis with various manifestations, among which the most common is the presence of painful ulcers of more than 14 days, occurring at least 3 times a year, either alone or in combination with other injuries may occur seven years before diagnosis and sometimes present proof positive pathergy. Histopathology study with neutrophilic vascular reaction or leukocytoclastic vasculitis. Clinical case: Patient of 14year with evolution of 3 years, with the presence of painful oral ulcers in more than three episodes a year, with biopsy oral cavity lesions compatible with BD and HLA B 51 positive. We will start treatment with immunosuppressant, mycophenolate 400 mg/m2sc for a year and prednisone 50 mg every 24 hours dose reduction with good response. Conclusions: Chronic oral ulcers are suspected of BD sign.
