Clin Neurol Neurosurg. 1993 Dec;95(4):319-22. doi: 10.1016/0303-8467(93)90109-t.

Abstract

A case of Behçet's disease associated with Sweet's syndrome is presented. The onset was neurological symptoms and oral aphthae. Subsequently, genital ulcers developed. Coexistence of Sweet's syndrome and Behçet's disease has been reported only in few patients. On reviewing the literature, we propose that Sweet's syndrome is one of the associated diseases of Behçet's disease.
