Behçet's Disease (BD) is a rare, idiopathic, chronic and relapsing entity; characterized by multisystem involvement. The gastrointestinal tract has aroused special interest, as it is associated with higher morbidity and mortality and given its heterogeneous presentations, being able to simulate other gastrointestinal pathologies, becoming a great diagnostic challenge for gastroenterologists. Therefore, we present a narrative review, where we intend to describe the possible gastrointestinal manifestations of BD and its differentials.
