ABSTRACT
In Behcet's disease, thrombocytopenia has rarely been reported in association with the hemolytic uremic syndrome, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura or in association with cyclosporine or chlorambucil in the treatment of ocular inflammatory disease and meningoencephalitis. In this paper we report a case of thrombocytopenia in a 33-year-old female with Behcet's disease who has taken no medications for three years. After history taking, physical examination, routine laboratory and bone marrow examination, we diagnosed her case as idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). She recovered with high dose steroid treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first report having ITP in a patient with Behcet's disease.
