MULTİPL AKCİĞER. METASTAZINI TAKLİT EDEN PULMONER WEGENER GRANÜLOMATOZU: OLGU SUNUMU

Year 2011, Volume: 25 Issue: 1, 41 - 45, 01.05.2011

Abstract

Wegener granülomat ozu, özellikle üst solunum yolu, akciğer ve böbrekleri tutan nekrotizan granülomatoz vaskülitle tanımlanan bir hastalıktır. Sınırlı ve yaygın olmak üzere iki tipi vardır. Sınırlı tipte böbrek tutulumu ve sistemik vaskülit bulguları yoktur ve prognozu daha iyidir. Görüntüleme yöntemlerinde genellikle kavitasyonla kendini gösterir. Nefes darlığı ve göğüs ağrısı şikayetleri ile kliniğimize başvuran 42 yaşındaki kadın hastanın, toraks bilgisayarlı tomografisinde sol akciğerde iki adet nodül saptandı ve metastatik akciğer hastalığı ön tanısı ile çekilen pozitron emisyon tomografisinde lezyonlarda malignite ile uyumlu artmış FDG tutulumu izlendi. Tanısal amaçlı operasyon uygulandı ve nodüllerin histopatolojik inceleme sonucu Wegener granülomatozu olarak değerlendirildi. Olgumuz wegener granülomatozunun nodüler formunun nadir görülmesi nedeni ile literatür eşliğinde sunuldu.

PULMONARY WEGENER GRANULOMATOSIS MIMICKING MULTIPLE LUNG METASTASIS: CASE REPORT

Year 2011, Volume: 25 Issue: 1, 41 - 45, 01.05.2011

Abstract

Wegener granulomatosis is a necrotising granulomatous vasculitic disease that especially involves upper respiratory tract, lung and kidney. Patients were categorized as having severe or limited disease. No kidney involvement and systemic vasculitis are present in limited disease prognosis is better. It is usually characterized with cavitation in imaging modalities. A 42-years-old female patient that presented with dsypnea and chest pain, having two nodules in left lung in thoracic computerized tomoghraphy, with an FDG uptake consistent with malignancy by positron emission tomography. Exploratory thoracotomy is applied and the patient is diagnosed with wegener granulomatosis in histopatological evaluation. Our case is presented for the nodular form of this disease is quite rare with the review of the literature.
