Background: Vascular complications can be seen in patients with Behçet’s disease. Arterial and venous complications may be found separately or concomitantly in patients. Patients and methods: Out of 29 patients with vasculo-Behçet’s disease 7 patients with multiple aneurysms and venous lesions were documented over a period of 20 years. All patients were male, ranging in age from 24 to 52 years. The mean duration of the disease was 6 ± 2 years. The aneurysms were found in the following locations: one pulmonary artery, two abdominal aorta, four iliac, five femoral, and two popliteal artery. Both aneurysmal and occlusive lesions were present in three patients. In the venous lesions associated with the aneurysms there were three deep and three superficial venous thrombosis. Two patients had caval involvement-superior and inferior vena caval syndromes. Results: We performed seven interposition grafting by polytetrafloroethylene, one Y-grafting, one aneurysmorrhaphy, one lobectomy. Re-anastomosis was performed in two patients who had anastomotic aneurysms and graft occlusion without disabling ischemia. Venous pathologies were treated by medical therapy. The patients were followed up between 1 to 8 years. One of the patients with iliac artery aneurysm died due to gastrointestinal bleeding 15 months after the operation. Conclusions: In conclusion, when an aneurysm has been found in a patient with Behçet’s disease, the patient should be scanned for possible multiple aneurysms and venous lesions since they might be found together. Surgical treatment, when feasible, should be performed in cases with Behçet aneurysms because of a high risk of rupture. However, the possibility of an anastomotic aneurysm developing after surgery should also be kept in mind.

Objectives Behcet’s disease is a multisystem disorder of unknown etiology with vascular complications. This study reviewed the mid-term outcome of Behcet’s disease patients with carotid artery pseudo-aneurysms treated by endovascular stent-graft repair at our unit. Methods During a period of 11 years, six cases were included. Postoperative ultrasound duplex results were recorded along with computed tomography angiography report done a year after intervention. Results The mean age (±SD) was 38 (±5.2) years. The mean (±SD) pseudo-aneurysm size was 33 (±12.2) mm. Technical success was 83%; failed cannulation of the internal carotid artery was encountered in one case. On day 2 post-operative, a duplex ultrasound revealed complete exclusion and thrombosis of the false aneurysm in all cases. A year later, a computed tomography angiography revealed a primary patency rate of 80%, and only one case had a recurrent pseudo-aneurysm at the distal margin of the stent graft. All cases, however, had complete thrombosis in the pseudo-aneurysms lumen with a mean (±SD) regression in size of 18 (±6) mm. The mean (±SD) percentage of in-stent stenosis was 34.5% (±11.73%). Conclusions Stent graft repair for carotid artery pseudo-aneurysm in Behcet’s disease patients might be the preferable first line of treatment since it had a high technical success and mid-term primary patency rates, with additional fact that it obviously avoids the hazardous complications of surgery.
