New insights into Beh çet's disease in Ireland: the Midwest cohort study.

CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of BD in Ireland is higher than previously reported with a significant proportion experiencing laryngeal destruction. There are many similarities as well as several differences in the epidemiology of BD by country and indeed within countries. We fully advocate the need for national and international collaborative efforts in order to further understand the complex aetiology and immunopathology of BD in order to improve the clinical, physical, psychological wellbeing of patients.
