    A Behçet's case presenting with central retinal vein occlusion: Case report
    (Turkiye Klinikleri, 2008) Helvaci, Mehmet Rami; Özcura, Fatih; Hacio?lu, Alper; Çivi, Kismet
    Behçet's disease is a systemic vasculitis, dominated clinically by recurrent oral and genital ulcerations, uveitis, and erythema nodosum-like cutaneous lesions. However, widespread organ involvement is now well recognized, and geo-graphic and ethnic variations of the clinical manifestations are common. The majority of the affected individuals do not have a life-threatening disease, but mortality can be increased with vascular and/or thrombotic complications. Although ocular involvement occurs approximately in 70% of patients, clinically presented retinal vascular events are rare in the disease. We report a Behçet's case, initially diagnosed with a right-sided central retinal vein occlusion in the absence of uveitis as a rare presentation and a short review of the literature.
