Abstract

Behcet's disease is a systemic disease affecting multiple organs including the central nervous system. Neuro-Behcet's disease was regarded as relatively rare, but thanks to the development of diagnostic tools, more and more cases are being reported. We are reporting a case of neuro-Behcet's disease in which the patient displayed paraparesis, dysarthria and involuntary tremor as neurologic symptoms. The patient's brain MRI showed cerebellar atrophy, and a spinal cord MRI failed to reveal any significant lesions. The patient experienced a couple of fever attacks during hospitalization, which were managed adequately by herbal medicines. Her main neurological symptoms such as paraparesis were, however, grossly unchanged at discharge.
