Oral Lesions as the Primary Manifestations of Behçet's Disease: The Importance of Interdisciplinary Diagnostics-A Case Report.

Background: Behçet's disease (BD) is a rare chronic auto-inflammatory systemic disease with non-specific oral manifestations, categorised as generalised variable vessel vasculitis that requires an interdisciplinary approach to diagnose due to its phenotypic heterogeneity. Whilst the oral lesions that reoccur in BD underpin the complex diagnostic process, the crucial role of dental professionals is highlighted in a case report summarised herein. We present a case of a 47-year-old male referred to the Oral Medicine Department by a rheumatologist after previous hospitalization for thrombosis of the iliac vein and inferior vena cava.
