ABSTRACT
Behcet's disease with aortic regurgitation as its initial or prominent manifestation is relatively rare. The progno-sis of these patients is poor and the death rate is high. Perivalvular leakage and pseudoaneurysm often occur after surgery due to clinicians failed to diagnose Behcet's disease before surgery . At present, the etiology of the disease is not clear , and there is lack of experience and consensus in drug control, selection of operation timing and methods, or prediction of postoperative com-plications. This review summarizes the pathophysiological changes, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment methods and prognosis of the disease, with a view to improve the level of cognition and treatment of this disease and improving the quali-ty of life of patients.
