    Description Behçet's syndrome is a chronic inflammatory disease that leads to mass inflammation in the blood vessels of the body which results in artery and vein damage. Many of the symptoms can seem unrelated at first, such as mouth sores, eye inflammation, skin rashes, etc, however, symptoms vary from person to person and varies depending on the body parts that are affected. Unfortunately, Behçet’s syndrome can lead to more serious complications such as blindness.

    This disease is not well understood but is believed to be autoimmune in nature since the symptoms are due to vasculitis. Researchers have also found several genes to be associated with Behçet’s and believe that those with these genes can trigger Behçet’s if they are exposed to a virus or bacterium.
