    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Rheumatology
    • Neurology

    Background:

    • Behçet's disease is a systemic vasculitis with diverse clinical manifestations.
    • Inner ear involvement is a recognized but less common complication.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the prevalence and characteristics of hearing disturbances and vertigo in patients with Behçet's disease.
    • To determine the nature of cochlear and vestibular abnormalities in affected patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Audiologic and vestibular examinations were performed on patients diagnosed with Behçet's disease.
    • Clinical data regarding disease duration and initial manifestations were reviewed.

    Main Results:

    • 62% of patients (10/16) reported hearing disturbances.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • 37% of patients (6/10) with hearing issues also experienced vertigo.
  • Examinations revealed both cochlear and vestibular abnormalities.

    • Conclusions:

    • Inner ear involvement, including cochlear and vestibular dysfunction, is a significant complication of Behçet's disease.
    • This complication is likely due to vasculitis affecting the labyrinth.
    • Inner ear symptoms typically manifest as a late complication, approximately 10 years after disease onset.
