Behҫet's disease (BD) is a chronic disorder involving multiple organ systems including the small and large intestines. A 46-year-old female diagnosed with intestinal BD presented with ileocecal perforation and diffuse peritonitis and subsequently underwent ileocolic resection with ileostomy. After surgery, she suffered from refractory para-ileostomal ulceration associated with BD. Most importantly, however, treatment with infliximab was significantly effective in healing the ulceration. This is the first report of para-ileostomal ulceration associated with BD successfully treated with infliximab, suggesting the possible use of infliximab as a therapeutic option for para-stomal ulcers related to BD.
