Behçet’s disease was described by Dr. Hulusi Behçet in 1937. Behçet’s disease is an inflammatory multisystem disease including recurrent oral and genital ulcers, eye and skin symptoms, joint, vein and nervous system involvement. Especially the scar tissue formed due to recurrent oral ulcers causes difficult intubation and ventilation. Also the drugs used for treatment may cause adverse effects on many organs. It has great importance for anesthesia choice due to multiple organ involvement. Our case was a 38-year old woman, who has been diagnosed as Behçet’s, caesarean section was planned at 38 weeks of gestation. Behçet’s disease and pregnancy are both important for the anesthesia management. It was planned as a general anesthesia for the patient because it was not thought to be a difficult airway management. In this case report the general anesthesia management of the patient with Behçet’s Disease was discussed.
