Özet

Objectives: We had the impression and preliminary evidence that atherosclerosis was not much increased in Behcet's syndrome (BS). Thus, we evaluated the presence of subclinical atherosclerosis in a sizeable group of patients with BS both with major organ involvement and mucocutaneous disease along with diseased and healthy controls.
