Background: Nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) is a diagnostic method for evaluating the microvasculature. Behçet's disease (BD) can affect vessels of all types and sizes. Methods: We performed NVC in 82 randomly selected patients with BD. NVC was performed for eight fingers (excluding the thumbs) with a 200× magnification. Results: Of the 82 patients with BD, 75 had at least one capillaroscopic change, including tortuosity in 75 (91.5%), bizarre capillaries in eight (9.8%), microhemorrhages in four (4.9%) and mega capillary in two (2.4%). The mean number of capillaries/mm length of nailfold in the group with BD was 10.17 ± 1.23 and was 11.45 ± 0.99 in the healthy controls (p |
