Servikal tüberküloz lenfadenit

Year 2007, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 28 - 31, 01.04.2007

Abstract

Tüberküloz gelişmekte olan ülkelerin hala önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. En çok akciğerleri tutan tüberküloz baş boyun bölgesinde lenf bezleri, ağız, tonsil, dil, burun, epiglot, larenks ve farenkste de yerleşebilir. Boyunda kitle ile başvuran olgularda çoğu kez akciğer tüberkülozuna ait bulgular bulunmadığından ayrıntılı inceleme ve tetkik gerekmektedir. Kliniğimizde 1999 ila 2004 yılları arasında boyunda kitle nedeniyle başvurup “tüberküloz lenfadenit” tanısı konmuş 16 olgu tanı ve tedavi yönüyle incelendi ve literatür ile kıyaslandı

Tuberculosis is an important public’s health problem in developing countries. Although tuberculosis is commonly found in lungs, it could be found in lymph nodes, mouth, tonsils, tounge, nose, epiglottis, larynx and pharynx of head-neck region. Since there is no specific finding of pulmonary tuberculosis, detailed investigations are required in patients admitted with the sypmtomps of neck mass. Between 1999 and 2004, 16 patiens with tuberculous lymphadenytis in our clinic were reviewed according to the diagnostic and treatment modalities. Results were compared with the literature
