Abstract

Kienbock disease is a rare disorder involving the lunate, one of the carpal bones, and is therefore not generally included in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting to the emergency department with wrist pain. In this case report, we would like to highlight a case of Kienbock disease in a 28-year-old female patient without any medical or traumatic history. Although it is a very rare disease of the lunate, emergency physicians should consider Kienbock disease in those patients with complaints of pain, swelling and limitation of motion of the wrist. An overlooked diagnosis or misdiagnosis may lead to bony ischemia, necrosis, and ultimately collapse of the bone.

Özet

Kienböck hastalığı, el bileğindeki lunat kemiği ilgilendiren nadir bir hastalıktır, bu nedenle acil servise el bileği ağrısı ile başvuran hastaların ayırıcı tanısında yer almamaktadır. Bu olgu sunumunda, hastalık veya travma öyküsü olmayan 28 yaşındaki bir kadın hastada Kienböck hastalığını vurgulamak istiyoruz. Her ne kadar Kienbock hastalığı lunat kemiğin nadir bir hastalığı olmasına rağmen, acil doktorları el bileğinde ağrı, şişlik ve hareket kısıtlılığı olan hastalarda bu hastalığını akılda tutmalıdırlar. Göz ardı edilen teşhis veya yanlış tanı, kemik iskemisine, nekrozuna neden olabilir.
