Abstract

We report a 20 month old girl with nutritional rickets presenting with abnormal gait and curved legs to the pediatric outpatient clinic.She started walking recently and she lived in a low socioeconomic environment, rarely leaving the house. The patient's history also revealed no vitamin D supplementation. Her physical examination, laboratory findings and radiological examination were compatible with nutritional rickets. She was treated with oral vitamin D and oral calcium lactate. One month later repeated laboratory findings were in normal range. In conclusion, nutritional rickets should be kept in mind especially under two years children. Nutritional rickets is a disease with satisfactory results when treated appropriately. If untreated acute and chronic complications as well as permanent skeletal deformities occur

Özet

Bu yazıda yürümede farklılık ve bacaklarda eğrilik yakınması ile başvuran ve nütrisyonel rikets tanısı konulan 20 aylık bir kız hasta sunulmuştur. Sosyoekonomik düzeyi düşük olduğu öğrenilen hastanın genelde evden çıkmadığı ve geç yürüdüğü öğrenildi. Öyküsünde D vitamini hiç kullanmadığı öğrenildi. Fizik muayene, laboratuar bulguları ve radyolojik incelemeleri rikets ile uyumlu idi. Olguya nutrisyonel rikets tanısıyla oral D vitamini ve oral kalsiyum laktat başlandı. 1 ay sonra kontrole çağrılan hastanın tekrarlanan laboratuar sonuçları normal sınırlarda idi. Sonuç olarak; özellikle ilk 2 yaştaki çocukların nutrisyonel rikets açısından değerlendirilmesi gerektiği, tedavinin hızlı ve yüz güldürücü olduğunu aksi takdirde kalıcı iskelet deformiteleri, akut ve kronik komplikasyonların görülebileceği akılda tutulmalıdır
