Abstract
Background/aims: The association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and gallstone and renal stone formation has been established. However, few studies have investigated this association in patients with intestinal Behçet's disease (BD). We aimed to examine the prevalence of gallstones and renal stones in patients with intestinal BD and identify potential risk factors.
Methods: We analyzed gallstone and renal stone occurrences in 553 patients diagnosed with intestinal BD who had undergone cross-sectional imaging examinations between March 2005 and April 2021 at the IBD Center, Severance Hospital, Seoul, South Korea. Logistic regression models were used to identify risk factors for gallstone and renal stone formation.
Results: Of 553 patients over a mean 12.1-year duration, 141 (25.4%) patients had gallstones and 35 (6.3%) had renal stones. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, disease duration > 19 years (OR 2.91, 95% CI 1.56-5.44, 0.002). No significant correlation 0.001), prior intestinal BD-related surgery (OR 2.29, 95% CI 1.42-3.68, p < 0.001), and disease activity index for intestinal BD scores ≥ 75 (OR 2.23, 95% CI 1.12-4.45, p = 0.022) were associated with increased gallstone occurrence. A positive correlation was observed between renal stones, disease duration > 19 years (OR 5.61, 95% CI 1.98-15.90, p = 0.001) and frequent hospitalization (> 3 times) (OR 3.29, 95% CI 1.52-7.13, p = 0.002). No significant correlation was observed between gallstone and renal stone occurrence.
Conclusion: These findings contribute to greater understanding concerning gallstone and renal stone prevalence and associated risk factors in patients with intestinal BD.

The Journal publishes peer-reviewed original articles, reviews, and editorials on all aspects of medicine, including clinical investigations and basic research. Both human and experimental animal studies are welcome, as are new findings on the epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases. Case reports will be published only in exceptional circumstances, when they illustrate a rare occurrence of clinical importance. Letters to the editor are encouraged for specific comments on published articles and general viewpoints.
