Arterial manifestations of Behcet's disease carry a particularly poor prognosis, especially pulmonary arterial aneurysms. We report herein the successful embolization of multiple bilateral pulmonary arterial aneurysms in a young Algerian man, whose treatment included corticosteroids and immunosuppressive drugs.Keywords
