Vascular involvement is one of the major causes of mortality and morbidity in Behcet's disease (BD). Aneurysm or pseudoaneurysm formation is one of the vascular complications, and the aorta is the most common site. Currently, there is no definitive therapeutic modality. Both open surgery and endovascular repair are safe and effective options. However, the recurrence rate over the anastomotic sites is a major concern. We report a case of BD in a patient with recurrent abdominal aorta pseudoaneurysm 10 months after the first surgery. Preoperative corticosteroids followed by open repair were performed with good outcomes.
