| Abstract | Very few patients with Behçet's disease (BD) have been treated with interferon alpha (IFN alpha) or interferon gamma (IFN gamma) to date. We report the successful longterm treatment of a female German patient with erosive arthritis and posterior uveitis with IFN alpha and IFN gamma sequentially and in combination. |
