Behçet's disease is a multisystem chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology with a wide spectrum of symptoms and organ system involvement. Arterial manifestations, particularly of the extracranial vertebral arteries, are rare. We report an unusual case of an African American patient with Behçet's disease, who presented with bilateral spontaneous vertebral artery pseudoaneurysms. The patient underwent successful endovascular parent vessel occlusion with detachable coils and on follow-up had complete clinical and angiographic signs of recovery.
