Colitis in Behçet's syndrome. Two new cases. 1978

S J Goldstein, and D J Crooks

Two new cases of Behçet's disease with colitis are presented and the radiographic features described. The changes in the colon resemble Crohn's disease more closely than ulcerative colitis but show some features which are distinct from both. One patient had perforation of a cecal ulcer and severe bleeding, stressing the serious nature of this form of colitis.
