| Summary |
This contributed volume provides a complete overview of Neuro-Behcets disease (NBD), one of the most serious manifestations of Behcets disease. It serves as a comprehensive and critical review of the current scientific literature regarding NBD, covering the epidemiology, pathology, prognosis, and treatment of the disease. This book is an essential resource for both researchers and physicians working on neurology, rheumatology, and internal medicine fields |
