Çalışmamızda kronik
ürtiker (KÜ)’e neden olabilecek faktörlerin tespitinde anamnez, klinik
bulgular, rutin tanısal testler ile otolog serum ve plazma deri testlerinin (OSDT ve OPDT) yeterliliği ve gerekliliğininin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Çalışmaya altı haftadan uzun süre ürtiker ve/veya anjioödem semptomları
tarifleyen 52 erişkin hasta dahil edildi. Tüm hastalar allerjik, otoimmün,
enfeksiyöz ve dahili hastalıklar açısından tetkik edildi. Ürtiker- ürtikeryal
vaskülit (ÜV) ayrımında kesin tanı histolopatolojik değerlendirme ile konuldu.
Otolog serum ve plazma deri testi 51 hasta ve 28 sağlıklı  gönüllüye uygulandı. Hastaların %32,7’sinde
fiziksel ürtiker (FÜ) tespit edildi. Emosyonel stres, en sık (%75) tetikleyici
olarak belirlendi. Kronik spontan ürtiker (KSÜ)’li hastalarda OSDT ve OPDT
sırasıyla %55,5 ve %16 oranında pozitif bulundu ve aradaki fark istatistiksel
olarak anlamlı idi (p=0,021). Tiroid otoantikorları ile OSDT pozitifliği arasında
istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ilişki tespit edildi (p=0,031). Fiziksel ürtiker, kronik ürtikeryal semptomlarla başvuran hastalarda
öncelikle dışlanması gereken ürtiker alt tipidir. Hastalığın yönetiminde
emosyonel stres kontrolü göz önünde bulundurularak hastalara gereken psikososyal
destek sağlanmalıdır. Otolog serum deri testi pozitif olan hastaların tiroid
otoimmünitesi açısından değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Rutin ve geniş
laboratuvar incelemelerinin yerine anamnez ve fizik muayene ile elde edilmiş
verilere dayanılarak etyolojik araştırmalar planlanmalıdır.

Etiologic Factors in Patients with Chronic Urticaria

Öz

In our study, we aimed
to evaluate the sufficiency and necessity of anamnesis, clinical findings,
routine diagnostic tests, and autologous serum and plasma skin tests (ASST and
APST) in determining the factors that may cause chronic urticaria. Fifty-two
adult patients with urticaria and/or angioedema symptoms for more than six
weeks were included in the study. All patients were investigated for allergic,
autoimmune, infectious and internal diseases. Differential diagnosis of
urticaria and urticarial vasculitis was made by histopathological evaluation. Autologous
serum and plasma skin tests were applied to 51 patients and 28 healthy
volunteers. Physical urticaria was detected in 32.7% of all patients. Emotional
stress was the most frequent (75%) trigger. Autologous serum and plasma skin
tests were found positive in 55.5% and 16% respectively in patients with chronic
spontaneous urticaria and the difference was statistically significant (p =
0.021). There was a statistically significant relationship between thyroid
autoantibodies and ASST positivity (p=0.031).
Physical urticaria is the subtype of urticaria that should be excluded
primarily in patients presenting with chronic urticarial symptoms. Psychosocial
support should be provided to patients by taking emotional stress control into
consideration in management of the disease. Patients with positive ASST should
be evaluated for thyroid autoimmunity. Instead of routine and extensive
laboratory studies, etiologic investigations should be planned based on the
data obtained by anamnesis and physical examination.
