title: [Intracardiac thrombus and pulmonary artery aneurysm in Behcet's disease].
abstract: Intracardiac thrombus is a rare manifestation of Behcet's disease.
  
  
  METHODS
  we report the case of a 60 year old male patient with Behçet's disease who presented with dyspnea and haemoptysis. CT angiography and echocardiography was performed allowing the identification of right heart thrombus associated with pulmonary artery aneurysm. The outcome was favourable with medical management.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Intracardiac thrombus is a rare complication of Behcet's disease, but the diagnosis should be sought early in order to allow medical management to be considered.
