Abstract
Abstract: There is a possible increase in solid neoplasms in patients with Behçet’s disease (BD). We describe a 31-year-old woman, of Turkish origin, with mucocutaneous BD, who developed abdominal pain and rectal bleeding soon after the birth of her second baby. Colonoscopy and biopsy lead to a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the sigmoid colon. The association between BD and neoplasms is discussed, emphasizing the importance of cancer surveillance in this patient population.
