Here, we present two Behçet's disease (BD) patients with an uncommon complication: inflammation surrounding the spinous processes revealed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). Both patients were treated successfully with 20 mg of prednisolone daily. Whether BD should be considered a form of spondylarthritis remains an open question. However, inflammation around the spinous processes should be regarded as a possible uncommon finding of seronegative spondyloarthropathy (SpA) in BD patients.
这里,我们呈现两例伴有不常见并发症的白塞病(BD)患者:正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描(PET/CT)显示棘突周围炎症。两例患者均成功接受了每日 20 毫克泼尼松龙治疗。BD 是否应被视为一种脊椎关节炎形式仍存在争议。然而,棘突周围炎症应被视为 BD 患者血清阴性脊柱关节病(SpA)的一种可能不常见表现。
