Case Report of Behçet's Syndrome with Significant Oral Manifestations

Aims: This report presents a clinical case of an 11-year-old female patient diagnosed with Behçet's Syndrome, who was diagnosed and treated at a private hospital in the southern region of the country. Case report: An 11-year-old girl who arrived at the emergency exhibited oral mucosal lesions, ocular discharge, throat pain, and persistent leukorrhea. On physical examination, the patient had no visible skin lesions. Patient presents with sialorrhea and ulcerated genital lesions. Both eyes exhibited bilateral mucoid discharge. The labial mucosa and lips showed multiple ulcers and erosions, which were also present on the palate, posterior region, back, and edges of the tongue. Vulvar hygiene, urethral probing, application of topical anti-inflammatory to the region, and chamomile tea were administered. Five daily photobiomodulation sessions were carried out with low-power laser for lesions of the oral cavity and oropharynx, in addition to oral hygiene guidance, use of 0.12% chlorhexidine for oral hygiene, chamomile tea, chamomile-based ointment and anesthetic spray. 5 laser sessions were performed due to the cost of treatment, after 5 days the patient was discharged and complete remission was not monitored. Conclusion: Despite being a challenging condition, BS is relatively common and demands accurate diagnosis and effective management.

Abstract

Aims: This report presents a clinical case of an 11-year-old female patient diagnosed with Behçet's Syndrome, who was diagnosed and treated at a private hospital in the southern region of the country. Case report: An 11-year-old girl who arrived at the emergency exhibited oral mucosal lesions, ocular discharge, throat pain, and persistent leukorrhea. On physical examination, the patient had no visible skin lesions. Patient presents with sialorrhea and ulcerated genital lesions. Both eyes exhibited bilateral mucoid discharge. The labial mucosa and lips showed multiple ulcers and erosions, which were also present on the palate, posterior region, back, and edges of the tongue. Vulvar hygiene, urethral probing, application of topical anti-inflammatory to the region, and chamomile tea were administered. Five daily photobiomodulation sessions were carried out with low-power laser for lesions of the oral cavity and oropharynx, in addition to oral hygiene guidance, use of 0.12% chlorhexidine for oral hygiene, chamomile tea, chamomile-based ointment and anesthetic spray. 5 laser sessions were performed due to the cost of treatment, after 5 days the patient was discharged and complete remission was not monitored.
