Abstract

Symmetrical peripheral gangrene is ischemia of two or more regions without great vein obstruction. This condition is a rare complication of sepsis, but also has a high mortality rate. Half of the patients require amputation. 85% of cases of symmetrical peripheral gangrene are related to disseminated intravascular coagulation. In this paper, we present a rare case of symmetrical peripheral gangrene in childhood due to disseminated intravascular coagulation during sepsis.

Özet

Simetrik periferal kangren; büyük ven tıkanıklığı olmaksızın iki ya da daha fazla bölgenin iskemisidir. Bu durum sepsisin nadir görülen ancak mortalitesi yüksek bir komplikasyonudur. Olguların yaklaşık yarısında ampütasyona gidiş gözlenmiştir. Simetrik periferik kangren olgularının %85'i dissemine intravasküler koagülasyon ile ilişkilidir. Sepsis tablosunda izlenmekte iken dissemine intravasküler koagülasyon ikincil simetrik periferik kangren gelişen olgu özellikle çocukluk çağında nadir görülmesi nedeniyle sunulmuştur
