Extractions: BEHCET'S SYNDROME The symptoms of Behcet's Syndrome Depend on the area of the body affected. Behcet's syndrome can involve inflammation of many areas of the body. These areas include the arteries that supply blood to the bodies tissues. Behcet's Disease can also affect the veins that take the blood back to the lungs to replenish the oxygen content. Other areas of the body that can be affected by the inflammation of Behcet's Disease include the back of the eyes (retina), brain, joints, skin, and bowels. The mouth and genital ulcers are generally painful and recur in crops. They can range in size from a few millimeters to 20 millimeters in diameter. Inflammation of the eye, which can involve the front of the eye (uvea) causing uveitis, or the back of the eye (retina) causing retinitis, can lead to blindness. It is very important for patients to have this sensitive area monitored by an eye specialist (ophthalmologist). If the arteries become inflamed (arteritis) in patients with Behcet's Disease, it can lead to death of the tissues whose oxygen supply depends on these vessels. This could cause a stroke if affecting the brain, belly pain if affecting the bowel, etc. When veins become inflamed (phlebitis), the inflammation can involve large veins that develop blood clots, which can loosen to cause pulmonary embolism. Symptoms of inflammation of the brain or tissue that covers the brain (meninges) include headaches, neck stiffness, and is often associated with fever. This can cause damage to nervous tissue and lead to weakness of body areas.

Extractions: *For Medical Professionals only, registration required Behcet's syndrome, (Halushi Behcet, 18891948, Turkish dermatologist), a chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown cause involving the small blood vessels and characterized by a classic triad of recurrent oral and genital ulcerations with ocular inflammation. Many other sites can be affected, including the skin, joints, and cardiovascular, neurologic and gastrointestinal organs. Joint manifestations involving a single joint or only a few joints appear in more than 50% of patients. The knees are the predominant site of articular involvement. Patients may have joint effusion, stiffness, warmth and tenderness, but permanent changes are rare. An elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, a strongly positive C-reactive protein, and elevation of alpha-2 globulin levels during the acute phase of the disease are typical features. Radiographic findings, which may resemble those of rheumatoid arthritis or related disorders, include osteoporosis, soft tissue swelling, and rarely joint space narrowing and osseous erosions. Sacroiliac joint abnormalities may sometimes be seen, and sacroiliitis can simulate the changes in ankylosing spondylitis or other seronegative spondyloarthropathies.

Extractions: *For Medical Professionals only, registration required Behcet's syndrome, (Halushi Behcet, 18891948, Turkish dermatologist), chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown origin involving the small blood vessels and characterized by recurrent aphthous ulcers of the oral and pharyngeal mucous membranes and the genitalia, skin lesions, severe uveitis, retinal vasculitis and optic atrophy. It also frequently involves also the joints, the gastrointestinal system and central nervous system. It is more common in males of eastern Mediterranean origin. Behcet's syndrome and Crohn's disease Involvement of the small vessels of the small intestine by vasculitis may produce a pathological, clinical and radiological appearance that closely resembles the findings seen in Crohns disease . An association of Behcets and Crohns disease has been reported in the literature. On enteroclysis, lesions of the small bowel, particularly small aphthous ulcers, are visible as small punctiform collections of barium surrounded by a thin radiolucent halo.

Extractions: ICD-10 / DA-3: Synonyms: BS, BD, Definition - Keywords: This aphthous stomatitis ocular inflammation , and genital ulcerations Epidemiology: and the presenting age is usually between 15 and 45 years. There seems to have been an increased incidence during the last decades. Aetiology and pathogenesis: The aetiology is unknown. Infections due to virus, bacteria and mycoplasma have been discussed, and lately autoimmunity. The basic pathological mechanism seems to be a deposition of circulating immune complexes in small vessels, causing vasculitis. Clinical features: Oral lesions are present in 90% of the cases ( Fig. 3033 ) . These are indistinguishable from those of RAU , and include all three forms of ulceration - MiAU, MjAU and HU. Only about 3% of all patients with RAU have BS, and progression of RAU to BS is rare. Eye involvement occurs in 80% of the cases with uveitis - and eventually hypopyon, conjunctivitis and/or keratitis. Severe eye lesions eventually causing blindness. Genital aphthous lesions are present in 65% of the cases with lesions on the penis, scrotum and/or vulva (labiae majora et minora).

It can make you feel very alone at times and I never know form day to day what I will feel like when I wake up in the morning. Someday are good days others I can hardly walk through a store with out ending up so full of pain I have to go home. Simple things I us to enjoy must now be done with great care or sacrificed completely. I live each and everyday with symptoms that feel a lot like the flu low grade fever. It's been that way for 3 yrs now. unimaginable extreme fatigue, muscle aches, weakness and a great deal of unbelievable Pain . If I push my self to do what us to be so easy and fun I pay a high price for it because my symptoms will then be worse to an unbearable level for days or maybe even months. There are a lot of days I can only sit back and watch everyone around me having fun and cant join in . It can be very depressing at times and make me feel very much all alone in this world with this ugly illness.

Extractions: EVALUATION OF A PATIENT WITH POLYARTICULAR PAIN Dr.BINOY J.PAUL, M.D;Dip.NB Asst.Professor of Medicine Medical College, Calicut - 673 008 Polyarthritis/arthralgia is a very common clinical problem in the day today practice. Eventhough there are more than a hundred causes for polyarthritis, when a patient is in front of the clinician, it is impossible to recall all of them. A simple logical methodology for dealing with patients who present with chronic polyarticular pain is necessary to solve this problem. The approach to patients with polyarticular pain is not fundamentaly different from approach to patients with any other medical problem. With a detailed history and laboratory or radiological tests, a physician can establish the diagnosis and begin appropriate therapy in almost all cases. Pain in an around multiple joints be broadly due to three major causes. They are inflammatory arthritis, non inflammatory (degenerative/metabolic) joint diseases or psychogenic causes. An initial evaluation is highly useful to differentiate these three major groups. The signs and symptoms useful in differential diagnosis are given in Table.1 From the initial evaluation, if the patient is suspected to have polyarticular synovitis (inflammatory arthritis), a detailed work up is often necessary to arrive at a definite aetiological diagnosis. It is taught conventionally that a detailed clinical history followed by a complete physical examination are mandatory before any thought arises on laboratory tests. But in actual practice all the three or atleast the first two can be performed simultaneously.
