The results of a microbiological and PCR survey of patients with Behcet’s disease, as well as the results of intravenous laser irradiation of the blood (ILIB) are presented. According to the authors, the clinical picture of the disease was represented by the presence of single and multiple repeatedly recurring erosive and ulcerative defects in the area of the oral mucosa (cheek area and lateral surface of the tongue) and/or external genitalia. 4 patients noted soreness in the area of rashes, in 2 rashes were accompanied by a rise in temperature and the symptoms of malaise, weakness. Signs of catarrhal conjunctivitis and uveitis were present in 3 patients, while there was no reduction in visual acuity in the course of the disease. 3 patients had pain in large joints without visible changes on the radiograph and an increase in ESR up to 18-24 mm/h. As a result of the complex therapy with antibacterial, antiprotozoal, antiviral, antifungal therapy depending on the detected pathogen, as well as procedures of ILIB, the resorption of the infiltration zone was noted on the 10-11th day of treatment. Ulcerative elements began to epithelize. Erythema, feelings of burning and pain were absent.
