Popis: | Behcet's disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis diagnosed on the basis of clinical criteria established by the International Study Group for Behcet's. Vascular involvement is common, affecting both arteries and veins. Aortic localizations are rare and severe and can be life-threatening in case of rupture. Thrombosis is observed but aneurysm or false aneurysm are more common. Computed tomographic angiography is essential for diagnosis and study of the characteristics of aneurysms and false aneurysms. Treatment relies on corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs in severe forms supplemented by open or endovascular repair. This latter approach represents a safe and efficient alternative to open surgery, it induces fewer pseudoaneurysms and increases the survival rate especially in association with immunosuppressors. We report a case of Behcet disease revealed by a false aneurysm of the abdominal aorta treated by deployment of a covered stent. |
