Abstract

Behcets disease is a chronic multisystem disorder characterized by relapsing inflammation for which the underlying histopathology is an occlusive vasculitis. Intracardiac thrombosis is a rare complication of Behcets disease. The management of this involvement is difficult due to the risk of recurrence. We prresent the case of a young man admitted to our hospital for hemoptysis. We discovered a right ventricle thrombus on CT angiogram and we confirmed the diagnosis on echocardiography.
