الملخص EN

Behcets Disease (BD) is characterized by oral and genital ulcers, ocular manifestations, arthritic, vascular, central nervous system and gastrointestinal involvement and usually affects young adults.

A thirty-six-year-old Bahraini female with recurrent ocular panuvieitis presented with history and clinical criteria was diagnosed with Behcets Disease (BD) despite a negative HLA B51.

The eye involvement was characteristic of BD and she was managed systemically with Adalimumab and responded satisfactorily.
