ABSTRACT
The reversibility of basilar artery stenosis in neuro-Behcet's disease (NB) has been rarely reported. We report a patient with NB who developed brainstem infarction related to severe stenosis in basilar artery. Initial MRA showed severe stenosis in the basilar artery, which was improved on follow-up MRA after immunosuppressive treatment. This case shows that arterial stenosis in NB can be reversed with proper management.
