Aynı Olguda İki Nadir Hastalık: Jarcho-Levin Sendromu ve Kompleks Kardiyak Patoloji

Abstract

Jarcho-Levin sendromu, ilk kez 1938 yılında solunum yetmezliğine neden olan yengeç şeklinde göğüs kafesi deformitesi ve çeşitli vertebral anomaliler olarak tariflendi. Daha sonraları hastalığın diğer organ sistemlerini de etkilediği görüldü. Sendromun spondilotorasik displazi (STD) ve spondilokostal dizostozis (SCD) olmak üzere 2 farklı fenotipi vardır. Sendromun spondilotorasik displazi fenotipi daha mortal seyreder. Toraks deformitelerinin hafif olduğu SCD tipinde ise eşlik eden kompleks kalp anomalileri prognozu bozar. Bu yazıda, Fallot tipinde çift çıkışlı sağ ventrikül defekti ve SCD fenotipinde bir Jarcho-Levin sendromu olgusu sunulmuştur. Literatürde daha önce benzer özellikte olgu bildirilmemiştir.

TWO RARE DISEASES IN THE SAME PATIENT: JARCHO-LEVIN SYNDROME AND COMPLEX CARDIAC PATHOLOGY

Abstract

Jarcho-Levin Syndrome is first described in 1938 as crab-shaped thorax deformity and several vertebral anomalies causing respiratory distress. Later on, it is disclosed that other systems are also involved in the syndrome. There are two fenotypes of the disorder namely spondylothoracic dysplasia (STD) and spondylocostal dysostosis (SCD). The prognosis of STD is more fatal. In SCD type, which thorax deformities are milder, accompanying complex cardiac deformities make the prognosis worse. Here we report a rare case of SCD type Jarcho-Levin syndrome associated with Fallot type double outlet right ventricule defect. This is the first such case in the literature
