Abstract

Behcet syndrome is a systemic vasculitis which can involve many different organ systems. As such, treatment decisions need to be based on organ system involved. In addition, specific patient characteristics potentially predict milder or more severe course, and all these factors need to be taken into consideration when making treatment decisions. In this paper, we review the current approaches to treating Behcet syndrome patients.
