抄録

It is generally known that in 20-30% of patients with Behcet's disease (BD) the first attack occurs after acute tonsillitis.<br>We performed provocation tests on the tonsils and tonsillectomy in 13 patients with BD and chronic tonsillitis and followed 10 of them for 17 to 81 months.<br>The tonsil provocation test was positive in 11 patients. Aphthous stomatitis, genital ulcers or skin eruptions like erythema nodusum decreased or disappeared after tonsillectomy in 8 of 10 patients with BD.<br>These results suggest that some types of BD accompanied with chronic tonsillitis may be regarded as tonsillar focal infection disease. In such patients, tonsillectomy may be effective clinical treatment.
