Preface 1 BehÃet syndrome -- Preface 2 BehÃet's syndrome: the role of patient's Associations -- The numbers of BehÃet: a rare disease -- Along the Old Silk Road -- Epidemiology of BehÃet's syndrome -- BehÃet's syndrome according to classical and population genetics -- Infections, autoimmunity and BehÃetâ€yndrome: what liaison -- Pathogenesis of BehÃet's syndrome -- Muco-cutaneous involvement in BehÃet's syndrome -- Neurological and neuro-psychological manifestation in BehÃet's syndrome -- Ocular involvement and BehÃet -- Muscle and articular manifestations in BehÃet's syndrome -- Cardiovascular issues -- Intestinal BehÃet Disease -- Audio vestibular involvement in BehÃet's disease -- Pregnancy and BehÃet's syndrome -- Pediatric Onset of BehÃet's syndrome -- Differential Diagnosis -- Classification and Diagnosis Criteria for BehÃet's Disease -- Prognosis and Disease Activity -- Old and New Treatment for BehÃet's Disease -- Surgical management of BehÃet's Disease.
BehÃet's syndrome can reasonably be considered a unique entity among diseases of the immune system for several reasons: It has specific features and, uniquely among the immune system pathologies, represents a link between autoimmune diseases, systemic vasculitis, and autoinflammatory diseases. In addition, it is of interest to a variety of specialists, including immunologists, rheumatologists, dermatologists, and ophthalmologists, and requires a complex multidisciplinary approach. Many aspects need to be considered in a syndrome that presents a wide spectrum of symptoms and for which the therapeutic armamentarium is expanding significantly, with the development of new treatments, not least the so-called biologics. This book offers comprehensive coverage of the disease by some of the worldâ€eading experts in BehÃet's syndrome from all the relevant specialties. Epidemiology, genetics, pathogenesis, organ system involvement, differential diagnosis, novel treatments, surgical management, and prognosis are just some of the topics addressed. BehÃet's Syndrome: From Pathogenesis to Treatment will be an invaluable reference for a range of practitioners, researchers, and undergraduates or postgraduates interested in immunorheumatology, dermatology, and rare diseases.
