A 24-year-old female with repeated histories for 6 months of genital ulcer, folliculitis, and oral aphthous ulcers discovered a bruit from right side of her neck by herself. Although carotid ultrasonography and three-dimensional computed tomography demonstrated a diffuse thickening of the intima-media complex in the right common carotid artery (CCA) ( Panel A1 …
