Abstract
Aortic regurgitation is a serious complication of Behçet's disease. We report a 17-year-old male with severe aortic regurgitation caused by Behçet's disease. An early diagnosis led to the immediate start of immunosuppressants followed by successful valvuloplasty with autologous pericardium.Entities:
