説明

A 63-year-old woman with a 20-year-history of Takayasu's arteritis was admitted to Keio University Hospital because of fever, oral ulcer, watery diarrhea and erythema nodosum on her legs. Barium enema and endoscopic examination showed multiple erosions in the sigmoid colon. With a tentative diagnosis of incomplete Behçet's disease, administration of prednisolone with an initial daily dose of 30mg was started. The clinical symptoms and laboratory findings showed prompt responses to the steroid therapy. Three additional cases which described coexistence of Takayasu's disease and Behçet's disease have been reported. These patients were characterized by prominent intestinal symptoms and absence or mild ocular lesions. In two patients including present case, HLA typing was done and both had HLA-B 52 and DR 2. A possibility of existence of homogeneous group of patients with unique clinical presentations of Takayasu's disease and Behçet's disease was discussed.
