Behçet's disease is recognised as a chronic multisystem disorder with vasculitis as its underlying pathological process. Cardiac involvement is rare and often associated with poor prognosis. A case of a 33 year old man with Behçet's disease, presenting with a large right ventricle and right atrial thrombus, is reported. Two dimensional (cross sectional), colour Doppler, and transoesophageal echocardiography, angiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging were used to diagnose the disease. With cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone treatment, the cardiac lesions progressively resolved.
白塞病被认为是一种以血管炎为潜在病理过程的慢性多系统疾病。心脏受累罕见且往往预后不良。本文报告了一例33岁患有白塞病的男性患者,其表现为右心室和右心房巨大血栓。采用二维(断层)、彩色多普勒、经食管超声心动图、血管造影、计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像来诊断该疾病。经环磷酰胺和地塞米松治疗后,心脏病变逐渐消退。
