Reactive Amyloidosis in a Middle Aged Female with Behcet’s Disease – Case Report

Behcet's disease is a multisystem vasculitis typically characterized by recurrent oral aphthae and genital ulcerations. Renal involvement in Behcet's disease is less frequent and often less severe than in other types of vasculitis. We encountered a case of Reactive Amyloidosis secondary to Behcet's disease in a middle aged female. Our patient had a partial remission in proteinuria after initiation of Prednisolone, Colchicine and Enalapril. Long term follows up is needed to assess the progression of the disease. This case is being reported for the rare and early occurrence of Renal Amyloidosis in a female with Behcet's.
