[Behçet's syndrome (author's transl)]

Descriptions of Behçet's syndrome have been appearing more and more frequently in dermatological, ophthalmological, neurological, and pathological literature as well as in the literature in the field of internal medicine. Only two reports (1, 8) have appeared in gynecological journals during the last 15 years, even though the second most frequent symptom of the disease is vulval and/or vaginal aphthae and/or ulcers (80%-90% of the patients). For this reason, the diagnostic problems, therapeutic possibilities and prognosis were explained with the help of this casuistic contribution.
