Popis: |
Behcet's disease is a multisystem inflammatory disorder, whose vascular involvement is very rare. Aneurysmal arterial involvement is the severe form of the disease, it constitutes a therapeutic challenge given its severity, and frequent secondary complications. Profunda femoral artery aneurysms (PFAAs) are extremely rare. The systematic immunosuppressive drug treatment and endovascular or surgical technique thoroughness can reduce relapse rate. We report the case of a young man in whom a false aneurysm of the profunda femoral artery revealed Behcet's disease. He underwent an endovascular treatment by embolization using coils; with good control after 3 months. |
