Abstract

Neuro-Behçet’s disease(NBD) is a multisystemic disease characterized by a wide array of clinical manifestations. The diagnostic process is inherently complex and necessitates meticulous differentiation from other diseases. In this case report, we detail the meticulous diagnostic process of a young male patient who initially presented with cognitive impairment, ultimately leading to a diagnosis of Neuro-Behçet’s disease. It bears noting that the postive outcome of the patient’s needle prick test has rendered an invaluable contribution to our diagnostic process. Subsequently, the patient encountered complications during the treatment course. Through a retrospective analysis of this case, we have distilled the salient diagnostic and differential diagnostic criteria for Neuro-Behçet’s disease, as well as potential pitfalls to be vigilant about in the therapeutic course. It is our hope that this case report will offer valuable insights and serve as a useful reference for clinicians in their practice.
