Abstract

A 49-year-old male was admitted to our hospital with complaints of perianal pain, bloody stool, and high-grade fever due to perianal abscess. Drainage was carried out; however, the patient's complaints worsened, and biopsy findings of colonoscopy showed ulcerative colitis-like lesions. The patient was diagnosed as having Behçet's disease with intestinal involvement, did not have HLA-B51, but did have HLA-B27. We describe a case of Behcet's disease with colitis, making a differential diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease difficult.

What Your Colleagues Say About Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports
My experience with Clinical Medicine Insights: Case Reports was excellent.  The entire review process was fast and accurate.  My previous experience with important top ranking journals was unpleasant mainly because the staff were slow and sometimes presumptuous.  On the contrary, the editors of Libertas were helpful and prompt in responding to questions and issues related to the submission.  I recommend the publisher to my colleagues.
