      <title>Introduction</title>
      <p>A45-year-old man, with no prior pathologic              antecedent was admitted to the internal medicine                    department for a 3weeks history of abdominal pain. This symptom occurred in the context of apyrexia and 4             kilogram weight loss. Abdominal examination was a painful abdomen, distended. The skin examination              noted painful genital andoral ulcers with pustlar lesions in the back. Angio CT scan revealed an aneurysm of the right common iliac artery (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1842296972">Figure 1</xref>).Artégraphie the lesion showed the same described above, showing the saccular aneurysm (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="idm1842295172">Figure 2</xref>). He had no other              aneurysmal localizations.</p>

      <p>Laboratory tests found inflammatory. The                  infectious analysis (VDRL-TPHA, Mycobacteria) was            negative. HLA-B51 was positive. The diagnosis of Behçet’s disease was made. The patient was treated  surgically with a prosthetic iliac-femoral,                   cyclophosphamide and methylprednisolone pulses              relayed by oralprednisone 1 mg/kg/j. </p>
      <p>Orogenital aphthosis, skin lesions and uveitis characterize Behçet’s disease (BD)<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ridm1849583948">1</xref>. The incidence of cardiovascular complications in BD is approximately 30%, although these complications are apparently the major cause of death, which highlights the gravity of the condition. Of the vascular lesions reported, 25% affect the venous system exclusively and 7% the arterial              system exclusively, 68% of the patients with vascular involvement have both </p>
