Abstract

Intrathoracic extramedullary hematopoiesis is a rare and usually asypmtomatic disease. In a 31-year-old man with β-thalassemia intermedia was incidentally found to have right hilar mass. In computerized tomography paravertebral mass lesions were detected. Cytological analysis of fine needle aspiration revealed diagnosis of extramedullary hematopoiesis. The patient did not receive any therapy because he was asymptomatic and he is on our follow up.

Özet

Toraks içi ekstramedüller hematopoezis genellikle asemptomatik olan ve ender görülen bir tablodur. β-talasemi intermedia’lı 31 yaşında erkek hasta, tesadüfen çekilen akciğer grafisinde sağ hiler bölgede, bilgisayarlı tomografisinde bilateral paravertebral kitle lezyonu tespit edildi. Uygulanan ince iğne aspirasyonunun sitolojik incelemesi sonucunda ekstramedüller hematopoezis tanısı konuldu. fiikâyeti olmayan hastaya herhangi bir tedavi uygulanmadı ve hasta düzenli aralıklarla izlemimizde tutulmaktadır.
