Behçet's disease with gastrointestinal involvement associated with myelodysplasia in a patient with congenital panhypopituitarism.

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are hematologic disorders characterised by peripheral cytopenias and the hystologic features of hematologic dysplasia. Their association with autoimmune manifestations have been suggested by several authors: recently, the appearance of Behçet's disease during MDS has been reported. We describe the occurrence of MDS in a patient affected by Behçet's syndrome with gastrointestinal involvement and congenital panhypopituitarism.
