RÉSUMÉ
We describe a 27-year-old man who developed gait disturbance and dysarthria 2 years after the onset of cardinal symptoms of Behcet's disease. Positron emission tomography with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose revealed severe hypometabolism in the cerebellum, in accordance wih cerebellar symptoms and sign of the patient. However, single-photon emission tomography with Tc-99m-HMPAO and Tc-99m-ECD did not disclose significant perfusion abnormalities in the brain. Routine brain magnetic resonance imaging did not show signal abnormalities. The findings of imaging studies compared with neurological manifestations of the patient are discussed.
