Behçet disease (BD) is a vasculitis of unknown etiology, characterized by oral or genital aphtosis and uveitis. Homocysteine (hcy) is an independent risk factor for venous and arterial thrombosis. The association between hyperhomocysteinemia and thrombosis has been investigated in some studies in BD patients. However, information on this association is based only on the results of small studies with conflicting results. To overcome such limitations, we performed a metaanalysis comparing the plasma levels of hcy in BD patients with and without history of thrombosis.
