Abstract

Wegener's granülomatosis is a disease characterized by a necrotizing vasculitis and granülomatous inflammation. The localized form involves the upper and/or lower respiratory tracts while in the common generalized form there is a widespread necrotizing vasculitis and renal involvement. Although gastrointestinal involvement which has been detected at necropsy in 24% of the cases is an uncommon finding, it might cause severe complications. We report a patient with clinical Wegener's granulomatosis who subsequently developed gastrointestinal perforation. Gastrointestinal perforation was treated with surgical resection and the patient survived under the treatment of cyclophosphamide and prednisolone with no further gastrointestinal complications. The present case indicates that the gastrointestinal complications might be considered in natural history of Wegener's granülomatosis.

Özet

Wegener granulomatozu nekrotizan vaskülit ve granulomalöz inflamasyonla karakterize bir hastalıktır. Lokalize formu alt ve/veya üst solunum yollarını tutmakta, yaygın formu ise yaygın nekrotizan vaskülit ve böbrek tutulumu mevcuttur. Olguların % 24'ünde saptanan gastrointestinal tutulum olağandışı bir bulgu olmasına rağmen ciddi komplikasyonlara yol açabilmektedir. Daha sonra gastrointestinal perforasyon gelişen bir klinik Wegener granulomatozu hastasını sunmaktayız. Gastrointestinal perforasyon cerrahi rezeksiyonla tedavi edilmiş, hasta başka herhangi bir gastrointestinal komplikasyon olmaksızın siklofosfamit ve prednizolon tedavisi altında yaşamını sürdürmüştür. Bu olgu Wegener granülomatozunun doğal seyrinde gastrointestinal komplikasyonların da göz önüne alınabilineceğini göstermektedir.
