Diabetes Mellitusu Olan Bir Kadın Hastada Fournier Gangreni: Bir Olgu Sunumu

Yıl 2014, Cilt: 5 Sayı: 7, 206 - 208, 01.07.2014

Giriş: Fournier gangreni özellikle kadın hastalarda nadir görülen
bir durumdur. Literatüre göre kadın hastalarda Fournier gangreni
vulvar veya Bartholin absesinin ilerlemesi veya histerektomi
ya da epizyotomi sonrası gelişebilir. Bu yazıda vulvar veya
Bartholin absesi olmayan, histerektomi veya epizyotomi öyküsü
bulunmayan Fournier gangreni olan bir kadın hastayı paylaşmayı
amaçladık.
Olgu Sunumu: 39 yaşında kadın hasta acil servise perineal
ve infrapubik bölgede, hiperemi, ödem ve ağrı şikayetleri ile
başvurdu. Hastanın Diabetes Mellitus (DM) ve tekrarlayıcı üriner
sistem enfeksiyonu öyküsü mevcuttu. Fizik muayenede mons
pubis üzerinde kötü kokulu, hiperemik ve nekrotik alanlar olduğu
görüldü. Vücut ısısı 38°C, lökosit sayısı 26,000 mm3
ve C-reaktif
protein 315mg/L olarak ölçüldü. Pelvis tomografisinde progresif
subkutanöz doku infiltrasyonu görüntüsü tespit edildi. Tüm
pelvik alanda olan, abdomene yayılan yumuşak doku içerisinde
gaz görüntüsü mevcuttu. Genel cerrahi tarafından hastaya geniş
perineal debritman uygulandı. Vankomisin ve klindamisin verildi.
20 günlük hastane yatışı sonrasında hasta sağlıklı olarak taburcu
edildi.
Sonuç: Fournier gangreni yüksek mortaliteye sahip, ciddi cerrahi
bir acildir. Geniş spektrumlu antibiyotik uygulanmasını takiben
geniş cerrahi debritman yapılması tedavinin köşe taşlarını
oluşturmaktadır. Her ne kadar Fournier gangreni çoğunlukla
erkek cinsiyetle ilişkilendirilmişse de, acil servis doktorları perineal
bölgede enfeksiyon bulgusu ile başvuran ve immun yetersizliğe
sebep olabilecek DM gibi komorbid hastalıkları olan kadın
hastalarda da Fournier gangrenini düşünmelidirler.

Fournier’s Gangrene in a Female Patient with Diabetes Mellitus: Report of a Case

Introduction: Fournier’s gangrene is relatively uncommon condition, especially in female patients. The literature suggests that Fournier’s gangrene in women may arise from vulvar or Bartholin’s gland abscesses or may result from hysterectomy or episiotomy. Here, we present a female with Fournier’s gangrene without a history of abscesses, hysterectomy, or episiotomy.Case Report: A 39-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with hyperemia, edema, and pain on the perineal area. The patient had a history of diabetes mellitus and recurrent urinary tract infections. Physical examination revealed malodorousness, hyperemia, and a gangrenous necrotic surface on the mons pubis. Body temperature was 38°C, WBC was 26,000 mm3, and C-reactive protein was 315 mg/L. Pelvic computed tomography revealed a progressive subcutaneous tissue infiltration and soft tissue gas within the whole pelvic area radiating to the abdomen. Wide perineal debridement was performed, and vancomycin and clindamycin were preferred for antibiotherapy. She was discharged healthy after 20 days of hospitalization.Conclusion: Fournier’s gangrene is a serious surgical emergency with a high mortality rate. Using broad-spectrum antibiotics and extensive surgical debridement remains the cornerstone of the therapy. Although Fournier’s gangrene is mostly attributed to the male gender, emergency physicians should also consider this disease in female patients who have comorbid diseases, like DM, and present with findings suggestive of infection in the perineal area
