Abstract

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by the production of abnormal antibodies that attack healthy tissues. These antibodies can cause inflammation and damage to various organs and systems in the body. The cause of SLE is not fully understood, but it is thought to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by recurrent destruction and inflammation of cartilage tissue in various body parts. This inflammation can cause various symptoms from cosmetic deformities to life-threatening cardiovascular and respiratory problems. Relapsing polychondritis is often associated with other rheumatologic and hematologic conditions, but it is rare to see it overlap with SLE. Although co-occurrence of these two diseases is rare, early and accurate diagnosis is essential for appropriately managing and treating these diseases. We present two cases of SLE and RP that were diagnosed and followed up in our clinic.

Özet

Sistemik lupus eritematozus (SLE) sağlıklı dokulara saldıran anormal antikorların üretimi ile karakterize kronik otoimmun bir hastalıktır. Üretilen antikorlar inflamasyona ve hasara neden olarak vücuttaki çeşitli organ ve sistemleri etkileyebilir. SLE'nin tam nedeni bilinmemektedir, ancak çevresel ve genetik faktörlerin bir kombinasyonu sonucu olduğu düşünülmektedir. Relapsing polikondrit (RP), kulaklar, burun, trakea, gözler, kalp ve eklemler gibi vücuttaki çeşitli bölgelerdeki kıkırdak dokuların yıkıcı ve tekrarlayıcı inflamasyonu ile karakterize nadir bir otoimmun hastalıktır. Bu inflamasyon ile deformiteler estetik görünümde bozulmalardan hayatı tehdit edebilen kardiyovasküler ve solunum problemlerine (örneğin havayolu kollapsı ve kapak disfonksiyonu) kadar çeşitli belirtilere sebep olabilir. Relapsing polikondrit sıklıkla diğer romatolojik ve hematolojik durumlara eşlik edebilir ancak sistemik lupus eritematozus ile birlikte görülmeleri nadirdir. Bu iki hastalığın birlikte görülmesi nadir olsa da hastalıkların doğru yönetimi ve tedavisi için erken ve doğru tanı çok önemlidir. Bu olgu sunumunda sizinle Sistemik Lupus Eritematozus ve Relapsing polikondrit tanısı almış iki vakayı paylaşıyoruz.
