Overview

Patients with Behçet disease usually appear normal. Vital signs of patients with Behçet disease are usually normal. The presence of mouth sores, genital ulcers, and vision problems on physical examination are diagnostic of Behçet disease. Skin examination of patients with Behçet disease shows erythema nodosum lesions typically occur on the extremities, especially the lower legs, but they can also be observed on the face, neck, and buttocks. The lesions are painful and resolve spontaneously, although some may ulcerate or leave hyperpigmentation. A folliculitis like rash, resembling acne vulgaris, appears on the face, neck, chest, back, and hairline of patients. Some lesions become more pustular; 24-48 hours after a sterile needle prick, some patients develop erythema with a nodule or pustule at the prick site. Ophthalmoscopic exam may be abnormal with findings of retinal vasculitis, and vaso-occlusive lesions. Uveitis of anterior and posterior chambers diagnosed with slit-lamp examination. Erythematous throat with tonsillar swelling, and exudates. Ulcers 2-15 mm in diameter, with a necrotic center and surrounding red rim. A white or yellow pseudomembrane covers the surface of the ulcer. The ulcers are typically painful, nonscarring, and found on the lips, buccal mucosa, tongue, tonsils, and larynx. Most last 7-14 days and occur in crops. Hypopyon may be observed in the anterior chamber. Genitourinary examination of patients with Behçet disease will show ulcers on the scrotum and vulva, painful and heal with scarring. Genital ulcerations tend to be deeper and larger than the oral lesions. Females can have asymptomatic ulcers. Neuromuscular examination of patients with Behçet disease will show CNS involvement in 25% of the cases. Immune-mediated meningoencephalitis predominantly involves the brainstem. Meningitis, encephalitis, focal neurological deficits, and psychiatric symptoms can be present. Irreversible dementia can occur.

Physical Examination

Physical examination of patients with Behçet disease is usually remarkable for: skin lesions, genital lesions, and neuromuscular complications.[1][2][3]
