Abstract (2. Language): 
Behcet's disease (BD) is a relatively rare multisystem inflammatory disorder characterized by the triad of oral and genital ulcers and uveitis. The central nervous system (CNS) is involved in 4-49% of patients in the literature. Transverse myelitis is a rare occurence, especially when it is the only neurological manifestation. We report here a 25 year-old man with neuro-Behçet's disease in whom the spinal cord MRI was abnormal.

Transvers myelit gelişimi özellikle de tek nörolojik bulgu olarak ortaya çıkışı ender bir durumdur. Transvers myelit tanısı ile izlediğimiz Behçet hastası 25 yaşındaki erkek olguyu, Behçet Hastalığı'nda spinal kord tutulumunun ender olması nedeniyle sunduk.
