| Abstract |
| Abstract We describe two cases of Behcet's disease
associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with trisomy 8. Both
cases developed ulceration in the cecum as a gastrointestinal complication
of Behcet's disease, after a diagnosis of MDS. We summarized recent
case reports of Behcet's disease associated with myelodysplastic
syndrome, and studied the clinical manifestations. Most cases showed
trisomy 8 as a chromosomal abnormality. Gastrointestinal involvement
without eye lesions seems to be characteristic of Behcet's disease
associated with MDS. |
