Yenidoğanda Septik Artrit: Olgu Sunumu

Year 2012, Volume: 4 Issue: 1, 47 - 48, 01.04.2012

Abstract

Yenidoğanda septik artrit nadir görülür fakat sekel bırakabilmesi nedeniyle ciddi bir durumdur. Genellikle hastane kaynaklı enfeksiyonlarla ilişkilidir. Erken tanıyı takiben verilen uygun tedavi eklem enfeksiyonlarına bağlı sakatlığı azaltmada veya önlemede en etkili yöntemdir. Doğru tanıyı koyabilmek için öncelikle böyle bir hastalığın varlığından şüphelenmek gerekir. Burada 2 günlükken kalça ekleminde hassasiyeti fark edilen ancak 24 günlükken septik artrit tanısı alan, öncesinde sağlıklı ve risk faktörü olmayan term yenidoğanın sunulması amaçlanmıştır. Acil cerrahi drenaja alınan hastanın sinoviyal sıvı kültüründe metisiline dirençli Staphylococcus aureus üremiştir. Cerrahi drenaj ve antibiyotik tedavisi sonucu hastamız sekelsiz iyileşmiştir.
