lüll Thoracic manifestations of Behcet disease at CT Hiller N; Lieberman S; Chajek-Shaul T; Bar-Ziv J; Shaham DRadiographics 2004[May]; 24 (3): 801-8Behcet disease is a multisystemic and chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown cause that is characterized by recurrent oral and genital ulcerations, ocular manifestations, and additional clinical manifestations in multiple organ systems. Behcet disease involving the chest can manifest as a wide spectrum of abnormalities. Although conventional chest radiography is commonly used for initial assessment, spiral computed tomography can demonstrate the entire spectrum of thoracic manifestations of Behcet disease, including abnormalities of the vessel lumen and wall, perivascular tissues, lung parenchyma, pleura, and mediastinal structures. Aneurysms of the pulmonary arteries, with or without thrombosis, are a typical manifestation of Behcet disease. Other manifestations include thrombosis, vasculitis, hemorrhage, infarction, and inflammation. Familiarity with these manifestations can be useful in the diagnosis of Behcet disease, helping to determine the cause of symptoms in patients who present with hemoptysis and guide the choice of appropriate therapy.|*Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH]|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Aneurysm/diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH]|Angiography[MESH]|Behcet Syndrome/complications/*diagnostic imaging[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Lung Diseases/diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Mediastinal Diseases/diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Pleural Diseases/diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH]|Pulmonary Artery/diagnostic imaging/pathology[MESH]|Thoracic Diseases/*diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH]|Thrombosis/diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH]|Vascular Diseases/diagnostic imaging/etiology[MESH] |
