Abstract

Chorea gravidarum is a rare disorder characterized by choreiform and athetoid movements seen during pregnancy. History of Sydenham chorea can be found in more than one third of the patients. Changes in basal ganglia metabolism secondary to pregnancy-related increase in progesterone and estrogen levels were suggested as the cause of the chorea. Herein we report a 20-year-old patient presenting with chorea in the last trimester without any underlying cause.

Özet

Gebelik koresi gebelik sırasında koreiform ve atetoik hareketlerle karakterize nadir görülen bir hastalıktır. Hastaların üçte birinden fazlasında Sydenham koresi öyküsü bulunur. Genellikle gebeliğin ilk trimesterında ortaya çıkar. Koreye, gebelikteki progesteron ve östrojen düzeylerindeki yükselmeler sonucu bazal ganglia metabolizmasında olan değişikliklerin yol açtığı düşünülmektedir. Bahsedeceğimiz olgu 20 yaşında, son trimesterda ortaya çıkan ve herhangi bir neden saptayamadığımız bir gebelik koresi olgusudur.
