Abstract

Thiamine is a water-soluble vitamin. Thiamine deficiency can present as a central nervous system disorder known as Wernicke's encephalopathy, which classically manifests as confusion, ataxia, and ophthalmoplegia. Wernicke's encephalopathy has rarely been reported following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Herein, we report Wernicke's encephalopathy in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia who had been receiving prolonged total parenteral nutrition after haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case reported from Turkey in the literature

Özet

Tiamin suda çözünen bir vitamindir. Tiamin eksikliği Wernicke ensefalopatisi olarak bilinen, klasik olarak konfüzyon, ataksi ve oftalmopleji ile kendini gösteren bir merkezi sinir sistemi hastalığı olarak karşımıza çıkabilir. Hematopoetik kök hücre nakli sonrasında gelişen Wernicke ensefalopatisi nadiren bildirilmiştir. Bu nedenle haploidentik allojenik kök hücre naklinden sonra uzun süre total parenteral beslenme alan akut myeloid lösemili bir hastada gelişen Wernicke ensefalopatisini sunmak istedik. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla literatürde Türkiye'den bildirilen ilk olgudur
