[Intracardiac thrombosis: unusual complication of Behcet's disease]. / Le thrombus intra-cardiaque: une complication rare au cours de la maladie de Behcet.

Cardiac involvment is rare, and intracardiac thromboses are exceptional in Behcet's disease. We present a 29 years old male patient seen for right heart-failure, thrombophlebitis and pulmonary embolism. A right atrial thrombosis was showen at the echocardiography and confirmed by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The diagnosis of Behcet's disease was established on the finding of bipolar aphtous ulcers and skin hypersensitivity. We conclude that Behcet's disease shoud be considered as a possible cause of cardiac thrombosis in the youngs men of the Mediterranean basin.
