Abstract Background To explore the clinical characteristics, treatment regimen, and prognosis of cardiac valvular involvement in pediatric Behcet's disease. Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data obtained from one pediatric patient suffering from Behcet's disease with cardiac valvular involvement. Present study also reviewed the literature related to cardiac involvement in pediatric Behcet's disease. Results The disease onset in the female patient was reported at the age of 3 years, with clinical symptoms, including apthous ulcers, fever, perianal ulcers, and erythema nodosum, accompanied by a significant increase in the inflammatory markers. Echocardiography indicated that aortic valve (AV) lesions, which were absent initially, developed later, gradually exacerbated. Initially, she was diagnosed as "infectious disease" and "systemic inflammatory response syndrome", and antibiotic therapy proved ineffective. After an accurate diagnosis of Behcet's disease, the patient was given glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and biologics, which resulted in the relief of the symptoms; however, cardiac valvular lesions continued to exacerbate. Subsequent treatment included medical treatment and surgical treatment, and the patient's condition was stable at follow-up. Conclusions Cardiac valvular lesions in pediatric Behcet's disease are rare with insidious onset, enhancing the propensity of misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. Main manifestations include recurrent oral ulceration, skin lesions, and fever. Cardiac involvement may occur early, yet the symptoms are insidious, requiring comprehensive physical examination and close monitoring of echocardiography. Glucocorticoids combined with immunosuppressants are the primary therapy for cardiac involvement in Behcet's disease. When cardiac valvular damage and dysfunction are observed, treatment regimens can be jointly recommended by multidisciplinary consultation to conduct the surgical treatment on time.

Behcet's Disease

Abstract Background Behçet’s disease is an auto-inflammatory disorder categorized as a primer systemic vasculitis of unknown aetiology. Genetic factors, infectious agents and the irregularity of T-cell homeostasis are presumed to be responsible for the emergence of Behçet’s disease. Characteristic symptoms are multisystemic. Although cardiovascular involvement is rare, it should be noted due to the difficulty of surgical treatment options. Case presentation Our 44-year-old male patient underwent aortic valve replacement due to aortic regurgitation. At the 15-month follow-up, echocardiography showed detachment of the prosthetic valve and in the aortic root, multiple pseudo-aneurysms were identified. We performed an aortic root reconstruction with a Bentall procedure using a special „skirted” conduit to reduce strain in the suture line between the conduit and the extremely dilated left ventricular outflow tract. Conclusions The surgical treatment of cardiovascular manifestations of Behçet’s disease remains challenging. This new technique may be beneficial in well-selected cases where the annulus of the aorta is extremely dilated or annular tissue disorder is present.
