摘要: Neurological manifestations present in 5% to 30% of patients with Behcet’s disease. We studied consecutive relapsing–remitting or progressive neuro-Behcet’s disease who referred from January 2002 2009 Nemazee Hospital, Shiraz, southern Iran. Sequential MRIs were performed during clinical relapses course relentless progression after first referral course. reviewed 55 17 (ten men and seven women) age 36.4 ± 8.1 years at the time MRI. Nine (53%) had a eight (47%) The initial last follow-up studies mean interval 29.2 months (range, 24 84). Of disease, 50% brainstem atrophy 75% black holes their MRIs. respective prevalence rates for those 0% 11%. In total population number lesions (p = 0.002) MRI burden 0.016) significant increase comparison studies. Incremental pattern burdens parenchymal our longitudinal study may imply an ongoing pathologic process.
