Abstract

Neurologic manifestations of Behçet''s disease (neuro-Behçet''s disease) are uncommon, but may cause patients significant morbidity and mortality. Neuro-Behçet''s disease is chronic and may be refractory to treatment. We report on a 12-year-old girl with neuro-Behçet''s disease that responded to standard doses of subcutaneous adalimumab.
