Oral Metilen Mavisi İle Tedavi Edilen, Prilokaine Bağlı Bir Methemoglobinemi Olgusu

Abstract

Prilokain, krem veya enjektabl form şeklinde çocuklarda ve erişkinlerde yaygın olarak kullanılan güçlü bir lokal anesteziktir. Literatürde normal dozda prilokainin uygulaması sonrası yan etki olarak oluşan methemoglobinemi ile ilgili çok sayıda vaka sunulmuştur. Tedavide metilen mavisi başarıyla kullanılmaktadır. Bu yazıda lokal anestezi amacıyla prilokain kullanımına bağlı methemoglobinemi gelişen ve oral metilen mavisi ile tedavi edilen bir olgu sunulmuştur.

METHEMOGLOBINEMIA DUE TO PRILOCAINE WHICH TREATED

Abstract

Prilocaine is a strong local anesthetic, widely used in children and adults in cream or injectable form. In the literature, there have been many case reports presenting patients developing acquired methemoglobinemia during its usage in therapeutic doses. In this paper, we report an infant who developed methemoglobinemia after prilocaine injection for local anesthesia and treated successfully with oral methylene blue

Keywords
