Çocuklarda Lenfadenopatinin Nadir Bir Nedeni: Otoinflamatuvar Hastalık - Ailevi Akdeniz Ateşi

Year 2016, Volume: 10 Issue: 4, 274 - 276, 01.12.2016

Abstract

Ailevi Akdeniz Ateşi (AAA), otozomal resesif olarak kalıtılan, tekrarlayan ateş ve poliserözit atakları ile karakterize otoinflamatuvar bir hastalıktır. Hastaların yaklaşık %90’ı çocukluk çağında tanı almaktadır. Tipik olarak 1-3 gün süren ve aralarda şikayetsiz dönemlerin olduğu ataklar ile seyreder. Atak döneminde en sık görülen bulgular ateş ve karın ağrısıdır. Plevra tutulumuna bağlı göğüs ağrısı ve sinoviyum tutulumuna bağlı ayak bileği ve diz artriti sık görülen bulgulardır. AAA’nın nadir bulguları arasında döküntü, göz tutulumu, epididimoorşit ve glomerülonefrit sayılabilir. Bu yazıda ateş, yorgunluk ve kilo kaybı şikayetleri ile başvuran, belirgin akut faz yüksekliği yanında abdominal lenfadenopati saptanan, ön planda malignite düşünülen ancak AAA tanısı konulan hasta sunulmuştur.

A Rare Cause of Lymphadenopathy in Children: Autoinflammatory Disease - Familial Mediterranean Fever

Year 2016, Volume: 10 Issue: 4, 274 - 276, 01.12.2016

Abstract

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessively inherited autoinflammatory disorder that is characterized by recurrent attacks of fever and polyserositis. Approximately 90% of patients are diagnosed in childhood. Typical attacks last for 1-3 days and there is an attack-free period without any complaints. Most common symptoms are fever and abdominal pain. Other common symptoms are chest pain and arthritis due to pleural and synovial involvement. Rash, eye involvement, epididymo-orchitis and glomerulonephritis are rare manifestations of FMF. Herein, we present a case of FMF whose initial symptoms were fever, fatigue and weight loss with high acute phase reactants and abdominal lympadenopathy that was mimicking a malignant process
