Behcet's Syndrome

IntroductionBehcet's Syndrome is a chronic inflammatory disorder of unknown etiology, characterized by aphthous lesions and recurrent ulceration of the mouth, genitals and uveitis.ObjectivesThe central nervous system is involved in about 20% of cases.AimsOnly few reports deal with affective symptoms associated with Behcet's syndrome.MethodsWe report a case of a 43 year old male with Neuro-Behcet's Syndrome that presents with a psychotic manic attack. He developed Behcet's Syndrome at the age of 23, with recurrent uveitis and aphthous lesions in the mouth, painful ulcers in the genitalia and erythema nodosum. HLA-B 5 was positive.ResultsHe was treated with azothioprine 150 mg/day for 13 years and prednole 100 mg/day during uveitis attacts for a week. At the age of 37 a sudden occurrence of right hemiparesia due to cerebrovascular accidence salicylic acid 100mg/day, siclosporine 150 mg/day, piracetame 1600mg/day were administered. He presented to psychiatry clinic in manic episode with euphoric mood, psychomotor agitation, talkativeness, decreased need for sleep, excessive buying and he had an unrealistical thought that he was a player of a famous soccer team. He was diagnosed as bipolar I disorder, according to DSM-IV. This was the patient's first admission and the symptoms which were continuing for 6 years exaggerated during uveitis attacks.Psychiatric examination releaved that increaced psychomotor activity, hypomaniac affect, amount and affect speed of speech affect, increased associations, grandiose delusions.ConclusionThere are a few reports dealing with bipolar disorder as an entity related to Behcet's syndrome.

AbstractObjective:To identify some of the main features of bipolar disorder for both first-episode (FE) mania and the preceding prodromal phase, in order to increase earlier recognition.Methods:One thousand and ninety manic patients (FE=81, multiple-episodes [ME]=1009) were assessed for clinical and temperamental characteristics.Results:Compared to ME, FE patients reported more psychotic and less depressive symptoms but were comparable with respect to temperamental measures and comorbid anxiety. The following independent variables were associated with FE mania: a shorter delay before correct diagnosis, greater substance use, being not divorced, greater stressors before current mania, a prior diagnosis of an anxiety disorder, lower levels of depression during index manic episode, and more suicide attempts in the past year.Conclusion:In FE patients, the diagnosis of mania may be overlooked, as they present with more psychotic symptoms than ME patients. The prodromal phase is characterised by high levels of stress, suicide attempts, anxiety disorders and alcohol or substance abuse. Data suggest to consider these prodromes as harmful consequences of temperamental predispositions to bipolar disorder that may concur to precipitate mania onset. Their occurrence should therefore incite clinicians to screen for the presence of such predispositions, in order to identify patients at risk of FE mania.

Rule Out

Neurocysticercosis is the most common neuro-parasitosis caused by the larval stage of Taenia solium. The most common manifestations include seizures and hydrocephalus. Psychiatric abnormalities are relatively rare but depressive symptoms are frequent in patients with neurocysticercosis. However, mania as a presentation is relatively rare. Pregnancy and the postpartum period are relatively vulnerable times and they can lead to reactivation of existing neurocysterci lesions. We are discussing the case of a 23-year-old female patient with neurocysticercosis leading to the reactivation of lesions in the peripartum and postpartum period leading to bipolar affective disorder. Improvement in the patient was seen with a combination of antipsychotics, antihelmintics, antiepileptics and steroids, along with improved radiological signs of neurocysterci lesions. Although neurocysticercosis is a common illness, its prevalence presenting as a manic episode is merely 2.6% and, hence, missed easily. Therefore, it is important to rule out organic aetiology in patients even with a classic presentation of bipolar affective disorder and those having any other neurological symptoms and signs.
