N Belfeki et al. J Med Vasc. 2017 Jul.

Abstract

Behçet's disease is a systemic inflammatory disorder with a wide variety of cardiovascular complications. Intracranial aneurysm is extremely rare. Herein, we are presenting a 41-year-old male with Behçet's disease and a headache. A cranial computed tomography scan angiography showed unruptured right supra cavernus internal carotid aneurysm and right sylvian artery aneurysm. Treatment consisted of prednisone and azathioprine. Control imaging showed no aneurysm.

Keywords: Anévrysme intracrânien; Behçet's disease; Intracranial aneurysm; Maladie de Behçet.
