Atypical cardiopulmonary manifestations in pediatric Behçet's disease.

This study demonstrated that pediatric BD is associated with atypical cardiopulmonary manifestations which maybe life threatening. Since diagnosis maybe challenging, a high index of suspicion is needed especially in young patients, to promptly diagnose and treat these complications. Cardiopulmonary signs and symptoms, though uncommon, maybe the first manifestation and a clue to the diagnosis of this rare disease.
