Abstract

Backround/Aim: The aim of this review is to give information about dermatomyositis which is ra rely seen and diffucult to diagnose. Conclusion: Dermatomyositis is a rarely seen disease that affects skin, skeletal muscle and blood vessels especially in Shetland Sheepdog and Collie. Neither the cause nor the pathogenesis of dermatomyositis are known, it is thought to be originated from autoimmune reasons. Anamnesis, physical examination, histopathological changes obtained from skin biopsies and electromyelography EMG are used for diagnostic approach. Vitamine E, corticosteroids and pentoxifylline are recommended for the treatment of dermatomyositis.

Abstract

Özbilgi/Amaç: Bu derlemede nadir olarak rastlanan ve teşhisi zor olan Dermatomiyozitis hastalığı hakkında bilgi verilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Sonuç: Dermatomiyozitis, özellikle Shetland Çoban köpekleri ve Collie ırkı köpeklerde gözlenen deri, kas ve kan damarlarını etkileyen nadir görülen bir hastalıktır. Nedeni ve patogenezi tam olarak bilinmemekle birlikte, otoimmun sebeplerden kaynaklandığı düşünülmektedir. Hastalığın tanısında anamnez, fiziksel muayene, deri biyopsileri sonucunda elde edilen histopatolojik değişimler ve elektromiyelografiden EMG yararlanılmaktadır. Tedavisinde E Vitamini, kortikosteroidler ve pentoksifilin vb. ilaçların kullanılması önerilmektedir.
