Abstract
Behçet′s syndrome is a kind of chronic systemic vasculitis with involvement of multiple organs. Intestinal involvement of Behçet′s syndrome is presently named as intestinal Behçet′s syndrome. Recently, there is considering another kind of disease type with only typical intestinal ulcers. Since it is difficult to differentiate intestinal Behçet′s syndrome from Crohn′s disease, intestinal tuberculosis, intestinal lymphoma, and intestinal manifestations of many other autoimmune diseases, and there is limited evidence for the therapy of intestinal Behçet′s syndrome, proposing diagnosis and treatment recommendations for intestinal Behçet′s syndrome through evidence-based judgment will be of great significance for clinical practice.
Key words:
Behçet′s disease; Intestinal Behçet′s disease; Diagnosis; Differential diagnosis; Treatment
