Our study was not designed to determine the prevalence of cardiac involvement in an unselected Behçet’s syndrome (BS) population, but rather to characterize cardiac manifestations identified during routine clinical care. Among 312 patients with BS, 90 underwent cardiological assessment and cardiac involvement was documented in 49, corresponding to 15.7% of the overall cohort and 54.4% of those evaluated.

Abstract
Our study was not designed to determine the prevalence of cardiac involvement in an unselected Behçet’s syndrome (BS) population, but rather to characterize cardiac manifestations identified during routine clinical care. Among 312 patients with BS, 90 underwent cardiological assessment and cardiac involvement was documented in 49, corresponding to 15.7% of the overall cohort and 54.4% of those evaluated.
