Induction of Behçet's disease symptoms after dental treatment and streptococcal antigen skin test

Y Mizushima et al. J Rheumatol. 1988 Jun.

Abstract

Severe symptoms of Behçet's disease were induced after dental treatment in 2 patients with stable Behçet's disease. Similar symptoms were probably induced by the streptococcal antigen skin test in 4 patients. These observations suggest a possible role of the streptococcus in the pathogenesis of Behçet's disease.
