title: [Cyclosporin A treatment of Behçet's disease].
abstract: We report on an Italian patient with severe mucocutaneous and arthritic manifestations of Behçet's disease. Monotherapy with cyclosporin A led to a complete remission. The therapeutic efficiency could be verified by relapse after discontinuation of treatment and a second remission after its reintroduction.
