ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of large pulmonary vessel involvement in Behcet's diseaseMethods The clinical data of Behcet's disease patients with large pulmonary vessel involvement,who were treated in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 1983 to 2008,were retrospectively analyzed.Results Thirteen patients had large pulmonary vessel involvement among a total of 418 patients with Behcet's disease.The 13 patients had a mean age of (37.5?12)years old,with 10(69.2%)having hemoptysis,8(61.5%)having dyspnea.Helical CT/CTPA showed that pulmonary vascular involvement included pulmonary arterial aneurysms(53.8%),pulmonary artery occlusion(46.2%),and pulmonary thrombi(46.2%).All the 13 patients were treated with steroid and immunosuppressant;five received steroid pulse therapy;and four received vascular intervention therapy.The mean follow-up was (3?1.6)years,with a follow-up rate of 92.5%.The 3-year survival rate was 83.9% for the 13 patients.Conclusion The manifestation of pulmonary vascular involvement in Behcet's disease is various,and the diagnosis mainly depends on the manifestations of CT pulmonary angiography.
