Behcet’s disease (BD) is most commonly found in people living along the Silk Road, with the highest prevalence rate in Turkey (more than 1 in 1,000 people), compared to Japan, where it affects about 1 in 10,000 people. Men are more likely to have severe forms of the disease, while women are more likely to develop skin lumps similar to erythema nodosum. The disease is most frequently found in people between the ages of 20 and 40.
The report provides a comprehensive overview of the disease, as well as historical and projected data on the epidemiology of Behcet’s disease in the 8 major markets.
The epidemiology of Behcet’s disease varies significantly between countries due to differences in healthcare access, genetic predispositions, such as the presence of certain HLA-B51 gene variants, and environmental factors like climate or infections. The prevalence of Behcet’s disease, the types of symptoms, and the death rate vary by region and ethnicity. For instance, the disease is more prevalent in the Middle East and East Asia, but it is rare in North America.

Behcet’s Disease: Disease Overview
Behcet's disease is defined as a rare, chronic, and multisystem inflammatory disorder. It is characterized by recurrent flare-ups and a wide range of symptoms. It is suggested that the disease is a result of an abnormal immune response, often triggered by genetic and environmental factors. Behcet’s disease affects multiple organ systems, including the skin, eyes, joints, blood vessels, and gastrointestinal tract. Painful mouth ulcers and genital ulcers are common symptoms of the disease.Behcet’s Disease: Treatment Overview
The treatment approach of Behcet's disease varies depending on the severity and organs involved. Corticosteroids are commonly prescribed to control inflammation. Immunosuppressants such as azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, and methotrexate are prescribed to suppress the overactive immune response. Biologics like TNF inhibitors like infliximab or adalimumab are used to treat resistant or severe cases for reducing inflammation and preventing organ damage.Epidemiology
The Behcet’s disease epidemiology section offers information on the patient pool from history to the present as well as the projected trend for each of the 8 major markets. The publisher provides both current and predicted trends for Behcet’s disease by examining a wide range of studies. Additionally, the report covers the diagnosed patient pool for Behcet’s disease and their trends. The data is broken down into specific categories, such as the total diagnosed cases across different age groups and patient pools.- In Turkey, more than 1 in 1,000 people have Behcet's disease, while in Japan, it is about 1 in 10,000. It is reported that the disease is most common in populations along the Silk Road.
- Behcet’s disease is most common in people aged 20-40 years, with the average age of onset being between 25 and 30 years. People who develop the disease before age 25 are more likely to experience eye problems and active symptoms.
- Ocular disorders, such as posterior uveitis and retinal vasculitis, affect over 50% of people with Behcet's disease. Joint pain (arthralgia) or non-erosive, asymmetric arthritis are common in about 45% of cases and can be an early symptom.
- The sex prevalence of Behcet's disease varies by country. In the Middle East, it is more common in males. The disease is slightly more common in females in countries like Germany, Japan, and Brazil. In the United States, females are more affected, with a 5:1 female-to-male ratio.
Country-wise Behcet’s Disease Epidemiology
The Behcet’s disease epidemiology data and findings for the United States, Germany, Spain, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, Japan, and India are also provided in the epidemiology section.The epidemiology of Behcet’s disease varies significantly between countries due to differences in healthcare access, genetic predispositions, such as the presence of certain HLA-B51 gene variants, and environmental factors like climate or infections. The prevalence of Behcet’s disease, the types of symptoms, and the death rate vary by region and ethnicity. For instance, the disease is more prevalent in the Middle East and East Asia, but it is rare in North America.
