Zusammenfassung:To report one case of a rare disease. 39-year-old male patient presenting with the suspicion of sexually transmitted disease. We show several pictures of a clinical case diagnosed and treated in our hospital. We performed a bibliographic review on the disease and present its etiology, diagnosis and treatment. We concluded it was Bechet's disease because of the past medical history, clinical presentation, and diagnostic tests (positive pathergy test). Although it is a rare disease, we should always think of the diagnosis of Bechet's disease in a patient with genital ulcers non responsive to treatment.
