 Objectives: Behçets disease BD is a systemic vasculitis. Since vascular endothelial dysfunction plays a prominent role in the pathogenesis of the disease, we considered angiogenic cytokines as an interesting target for investigation in BD. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible role of angiogenin, vascular endothelial growth factor VEGF and basic fibroblast growth factor bFGF in the pathogenesis of BD.
