Abstract

The article presents a case study of a 39-year old female who was admitted to the neurology department due to recurrent genital ulcers, oral ulcers, and pain on her left sole. Neurologic examination reveals weakness in left toe's flexion, extension, and abduction while ankle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) shows diffuse swelling and left tibial nerve enhancement. It states that the case suggests Behcet's disease (BD) characterized by recurrent tibial neuropathy.
