Abstract

Skleroderma cilt altında ve iç organlarda artmış kollajen birikimi ile karakterize bir bağ dokusu hastalığıdır. Etiyolojisi tam aydınlatılamamakla birlikte bazı kimyasal ajanların ve çevresel faktörlerin etyopatogenezde rol oynadığı kabul edilmektedir. Progresif sistemik skleroderma olan olgularda gastrointestinal kanal karsinomlarının arttığına dair sınırlı veri bulunmaktadır. Kolon karsinomu tedavisinde kullanılan 5-florourasil ile skleroderma ilişkisine dair literatürde sadece iki olgu bildirilmiştir. 5-florourasil ve folinik asit tedavisi verilen timik karsinomlu bir olguda ise skleroderma benzeri klinik tablo ve otoantikor pozitifliği bildirilmiştir. Bu yazıda, 51 yaşında kolon karsinomu tanısıyla 3 kür 5-florourasil ve folinik asit tedavisi alan ve daha sonra scleroderma geliştiren bir olgu sunulmuştur.
