W. Alberto Sifuentes Giraldo: EULAR 2025 Key Recommendations for Behçet’s Syndrome Management
W. Alberto Sifuentes Giraldo, Rheumatologist at Hospital Nuestra Señora de Sonsoles (Sacyl), shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Gulen Hatemi, adding:
“The 2025 update of EULAR recommendations for the management of Behçet’s syndrome, recently published in Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, include 5 overarching principles and 12 recommendations organised by organ involvement.
Overarching principles stress the relapsing-remitting nature of the disease, individualised treatment based on activity and prognostic factors, a multidisciplinary approach, patient education, and shared decision-making.
Key recommendations:
- Mucocutaneous and joint involvement: Colchicine is first-line; apremilast or TNFα inhibitors for refractory cases.
- Organ-threatening disease: Early aggressive therapy with glucocorticoids and immunosuppressives, with prompt use of monoclonal TNFα inhibitors encouraged for severe or life-threatening manifestations.
Of the 12 recommendations, 1 is entirely new, 7 were modified, and 4 had only wording changes.”
