Overview

The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 0.12 to 7.5 per 100,000 individuals in the United States. Behcet disease commonly affects young adults 20 to 40 years of age. Males are more commonly affected by Behcet disease than females. Behcet disease usually affects individuals of the Turkish, Asian, and Middle Eastern populations. Middle Eastern and Asian individuals are more likely to develop Behcet disease due to the increased incidence of skin pathergy and HLA-B51 antigen. The male to female ratio ranges from approximately 11 to 1 to 2 to 1. The majority of behcet disease cases are reported along the ancient silk road (from eastern Asia to the Mediterranean).

Epidemiology and Demographics

Prevalence

  • The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 80 to 370 per 100,000 individuals in Turkey[1][2]
  • The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 13.5 to 20 per 100,000 individuals in Iran, Japan, Korea, China and Saudi Arabia[1]
  • The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 7.1 per 100,000 individuals in Paris, France[3]
  •  The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 2.4 per 100,000 individuals in European ancestry[3]
  •  The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 34.6 per 100,000 individuals in North African ancestry[3]
  • The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 17.5 per 100,000 individuals in Asian ancestry[3]
  • The prevalence of behcet disease is approximately 0.12 to 7.5 per 100,000 individuals in the United States[4]

Age

  • Behcet disease commonly affects young adults 20 to 40 years of age[5]

Race

  • Behcet disease usually affects individuals of the Turkish, Asian, and Middle Eastern populations.
  • Middle Eastern and Asian individuals are more likely to develop Behcet disease due to the increased incidence of skin pathergy and HLA-B51 antigen
