ABSTRACT

A 12‐year‐old boy presented with recurrent oral and scrotal ulcers, papulopustular lesions, arthralgia, and a positive pathergy test. Autoimmune tests were negative; ophthalmologic and gastrointestinal assessments were reassuring. Topical therapy and colchicine produced sustained improvement. This case supports early recognition and surveillance in mucocutaneous‐predominant pediatric Behçet's disease.
