Endovascular repair of a dual abdominal aortic aneurysm in Behcet's disease

Abstract

Behcet's disease is an inflammatory multisystemic vasculitis characterized by orogenic ulcers and ocular lesions and its etiology is still unknown. The incidence of aortic aneurysms is 2 to 6% in patients with Behcet's disease and 18% of these aneurysms are in multiple pattern. Herein, we represent the first case of a dual true saccular abdominal aneurysm in Behcet's disease which was treated with endovascular repair technique. [Turk J Vasc Surg 2019; 28(2.000): 120-2]
