ABSTRACT

Behcet’s disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis usually seen in young adults, which affects both venous and arterial vessels of the vascular system. Its etiology is still unknown. The patognomic symptoms are recurrent oral aphtae accompanies with at least two of these; positive pathergy test, skin lesions, recurrent genital ulcers and lesions in the eye. Urogenital involvement usually consists of genital ulcers, urethritis, epididymitis and recurrent cystitis. Bladder involvement is extremely rare and only several cases have been reported. The findings suggest that neurogenic bladder due to neuro-Behçet disease is characterized uro-dynamically by overactive detrusor in storage phase and detrusor sphincter dyssynergia in voiding phase 12. We aimed to present several aspects of bladder involvement of Behcet disease in this case report.
