Abstract

Pterigium colli is a clinical finding that may be seen in Turner, Noonan and Klippel-Feil syndromes. The extracervical skin extending from the mastoid processes to the acromion constitutes curtains which may be bilateral and asymmetric, and the name of “flail neck” originates from this view. The hair line extends laterally in the posterior and a wide nuchal line is formed. Several methods have been described for the repair of pterigium colli. In this report the repair of pterigium colli in a 16-year-old patient with Turner syndrome using a modified Z plasty technique is presented. The advancement technique of lateral cervical flaps in the repair of pterigium colli is a safe technique with satisfactory results.

Özet

Pterigium colli, Turner, Noonan ve Klippel-Feil sendromlarında görülebilen bir klinik bulgudur. Bu deformitede servikal cildin fazlalığı mastoidden akromiyona doğru bilateral ve asimetrik olabilen “perdeler” oluşturur ve “yelken boyun” ismi de buradan kaynaklanmaktadır. Saçlar posteriyorda laterale doğru uzanır ve geniş bir nukal saç çizgisi oluşur. Pterigium colli’nin düzeltilmesi için çeşitli teknikler tanımlanmıştır. Bu yazıda Turner sendromu olan 16 yaşında bir hastada modifiye Z plasti tekniği ile pterigium colli’nin düzeltilmesi sunulmuştur. Sonuç olarak pterigium colli düzeltilmesinde lateral boyun fleplerinin ilerletme yöntemi güvenilir ve tatmin edici sonuçları olan bir cerrahi işlemdir.
