Abstract
Behcet's disease is a systemic process characterized by oral ulcers, genital ulcers, uveitis, and skin lesions. Furthermore, Behcet's disease can manifest as vasculitis lesions, such as arterial aneurysm, venous thrombosis or thrombophlebitis. We report the case of a pulmonary artery aneurysm thrombosis associated with intracardiac thrombus in a 21-year-old male with a previous diagnosis of Behcet's disease presented with dyspnea and hemoptisis.
