Behcets syndrome
His first observations on Behçet's disease began with a patient he met between 1924-1925. This man had been consulted for 40 years in Istanbul and Vienna, Austria several times. According to his symptoms, the illness had been diagnosed. From the etiology, syphilis and tuberculosis were suspected. Austrian doctors had called an unknown protozoal disease. Ophtalmology/Ophthalmologists had described the ocular symptomes as iritis, which might be the result of syphilis, tuberculosis or streptococcal or staphylococcal infections. After several iridectomies, the patient had completely lost his vision. Dr. Behçet continued to follow up the patient for many years.
In 1930, a woman suffering from irritation in her eye and with lesions in her mouth and genital regions was referred to Dr. Behçet's clinic and told him that these symptoms had been recurring for several years. He consulted the patient until 1932 and tried to diagnose the etiological agent for tuberculosis, syphilis or mycosis etc. by biopsy and other laboratory analysis, but he could not find anything. The prominent ophthalmologists Dr. Murat Rahmi and Dr. Iggescheimer had been also consulted.
Following those two patients, in 1936 a male patient from a dental clinic with oral wounds, acneiform signs on the back, scrotal ulcer, eye irritation, evening fever, and abdominal pain was sent to his clinic. After the consultation, nothing except a dental cyst was found. Dr. Behçet thought the recurrent symptoms might be due to a virus. He referred the patient to Prof. Braun who did a viral investigation and found some corpuscular structures.
Dr. Behçet, with the symptoms of these three patients whom he had followed for years, then decided that they were the symptoms of a new disease and in 1936, he described the situation in a meeting and this was published in the ''Archives of Dermatology and Venereal Disease''. He wrote in 1937 his ideas in the ''Dermatologische Wochenschrift'' and the same year he presented it at the meeting of the Dermatology Association of Paris. At this meeting, he declared that a dental infection might cause the etiology of the disease. In 1938, he published his ideas about the subject in the ''Dermatologische Wochenschrift'' in a more detailed form. In the same year, Dr. Niyazi Gözcü and Prof. Frank reported two new cases with the same symptoms. The Belgian scientists Weekers and Reginster, and the Italy/Italian Frachescetti reported some patients with similar symptoms. Therefore, European doctors had accepted the appearance of a new disease. Ophthalmologists had begun to accept "Behçet's Disease", but dermatologists kept denying the new disease, insisting they could be symptoms of known diseases. While that debate was taking place, some new cases were reported from Belgium, Austria, the USA, Japan, Denmark, Switzerland and Israel. When they had been published, the whole world finally came to accept that they were confronted with a new disease. In 1947, at the suggestion of Prof. Mischner of the Zurich Medical Faculty during the International Medical Congress of Geneva, the finding of Dr. Behçet was named "Morbus Behçet". Though it was evaluated in the early days as "Behçet's Syndrome", "Trisymptom Behçet", and "Morbus Behçet", today the disease is universally called Behçet's Disease in medical literature. Dr. Behçet published 126 national and international articles between 1921 and 1940. 53 of those appeared in prestigious European scientific journals.
Hulusi Behçet was deeply interested in the arts, particularly literature. Generally he was nervous and suffered from insomnia, colitis and angina pectoris, but sometimes he was joyful and good humored among friends. He was divorced from his wife seven years before his death from a sudden heart attack on March 8, 1948.
Commemoration
In 1975, many years after his death, he was honored with the TUBITAK Scientific Award. Several classes, laboratories and libraries had been named in his honor. A new generation of scientists continues to carry on the excellent work he began, working with foundations and units that are named after his name. In national and international congresses, events like "Korean-Turkish Behçet Days" are taking place. The results of these studies are published every year in various journals. In 1980, on the initiative of one of his students, a postal stamp was issued in his commemoration, about which an article was published in the '' Journal of the American Dental Association''. His biography was published in the ''Journal of Philatelic Society'' and in the ''Medical Bulletin of the United States Army, Europe and Seventh Army's Medical Bulletin'' .In 1982, he was awarded with the Medical Award of the Turkish Republic by Eczacıbaşı Foundation of Scientific Research. In 1996, the Turkish mint released a silver commemorative coin for Dr. Behçet during the National Dermatology Congress.
