Abstract
Behçet's disease in Chinese patients mainly manifests as nongranulomatous uveitis frequently associated with oral aphthae and dermatologic lesions. Fundus fluorescein angiography, B-scan ultrasonography, LFCM, UBM, and OCT may provide much information about pathophysiologic hallmarks of Behçet's disease. A combination of corticosteroids with other immunosuppressive agents is effective for most patients with Behçet's disease. Males had a more severe course and were at higher risk for losing vision than females.
