Hughes-Stovin Syndrome (HSS) is a rare clinical disorder characterized by deep venous thrombosis and multiple pulmonary and/or bronchial aneurysms. Aneurysms in systemic circulation can also be seen.
We report the first case of HSS with aortic aneurysm in a 55-year-old man who initially presented with deep venous thrombosis. The diagnosis of HSS revealing Behçet's disease was made given the history of recurrent oral and genital ulcers. Treatment consisted of 3 daily pulses of methylprednisolone (1g) followed by oral prednisone (1mg/kg daily) and 6 monthly pulses of cyclophosphamide. Oral anticoagulation treatment was held 3 months and then was stopped with good outcome.
Systemic aneurysms in Hughes Stovin is a worth knowing complication which may reveal Behçet's disease.
休斯-斯托文综合征（HSS）是一种罕见的临床疾病，其特征为深静脉血栓形成以及多个肺和/或支气管动脉瘤。也可见体循环中的动脉瘤。
我们报告了首例患有主动脉瘤的HSS病例，患者为一名55岁男性，最初表现为深静脉血栓形成。鉴于有复发性口腔溃疡和生殖器溃疡病史，诊断为显示白塞病的HSS。治疗包括每日3次静脉注射甲泼尼龙（1g），随后口服泼尼松（每日1mg/kg）以及每6个月静脉注射1次环磷酰胺。口服抗凝治疗暂停3个月，之后停药，效果良好。
休斯-斯托文综合征中的体循环动脉瘤是一种值得了解的并发症，可能提示白塞病。
