Behcet's disease, also named as Behcet's syndrome, always involves oral mucosa, eyes and genitals. It is an autoimmune disease with undetermined etiology. The occurrence of Behcet's disease varies in regions and races, and exhibits the tendency of familial aggregation. Therefore, the researches on genetics of Behcet's disease play an important role in the early diagnosis and exploration of novel treatment methods. The research progress on genetics of Behcet's disease is reviewed in this paper.
