Os autores relatam o caso de uma paciente do sexo feminino que apresentou início da doença há 3 anos com úlceras orais, além de úlceras genitais, e que vem cursando com episódios recorrentes de trombose venosa, sendo a primeira uma trombose venosa profunda no membro inferior direito; a segunda, de jugular interna esquerda; e, por último, uma trombose da veia cava superior.

Abstract

Venous thrombosis is the main hazard to the vascular system in Behçet's disease. It is a frequent complication throughout the clinical evolution of this illness, which is more associated with the male gender. The authors report the case of a female patient with disease onset 3 years ago, showing oral and genital ulcers presenting with recurring episodes of venous thrombosis. The first one was a deep venous thrombosis in the right leg; the second was in the left internal jugular vein; and finally a superior vena cava thrombosis.
