We report the development of two anastomotic pseudoaneurysms in a patient with Behcet's disease eighteen months after abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Major asymptomatic vascular complications should be suspected in patients with Behcet's disease with a history of vascular surgery and treated expediently due to the risk of rupture. Magnetic resonance angiography, contrast-enhanced computed tomography or ultrasound scanning should be performed at least every 6 months after vascular surgery.

Abstract
We report the development of two anastomotic pseudoaneurysms in a patient with Behcet's disease eighteen months after abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Major asymptomatic vascular complications should be suspected in patients with Behcet's disease with a history of vascular surgery and treated expediently due to the risk of rupture. Magnetic resonance angiography, contrast-enhanced computed tomography or ultrasound scanning should be performed at least every 6 months after vascular surgery.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
