Background: hughes-stovin syndrome (hss) is a rare clinical disorder characterized by deep venous thrombosis and multiple pulmonary and/or bronchial aneurysms. aneurysms in systemic circulation can also be seen. case presentation: we report the first case of hss with aortic aneurysm in a 55-year-old man who initially presented with deep venous thrombosis. the diagnosis of hss revealing behçet's disease was made given the history of recurrent oral and genital ulcers. treatment consisted of 3 daily pulses of methylprednisolone (1g) followed by oral prednisone (1mg/kg daily) and 6 monthly pulses of cyclophosphamide. oral anticoagulation treatment was held 3 months and then was stopped with good outcome. conclusion: systemic aneurysms in hughes stovin is a worth knowing complication which may reveal behçet's disease.
