Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a worldwide pandemia and public health emergency resulting from Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) which results in severe acute respiratory syndrome. Coronavirus disease 2019, known to be drastically experienced in those with underlying chronic respiratory system diseases, can lead to serious complications in individuals with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) disease. Nevertheless, there has been no case report or literature publication regarding the course of COVID 19 in SMA patients and its effect on nusinersen treatment yet. The aim of this study is to contribute to the literature concerning the management of SARS-CoV-2 positive SMA patients. We present a 3.5 month-old baby girl whose SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was positive while it was negative in other family members, she was diagnosed as asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 carrier and nusinersen treatment was administered.

Özet

Coronavirus hastalığı 2019 (COVID 19), Coronavirus-2 (SARS CoV 2)’den kaynaklanan ciddi akut respiratuar sendrom ile sonuçlanan halen dünya çapında görülen pandemi ve halk sağlığı acilidir. Altta yatan kronik solunum sistemi hastalığına sahip bireylerde daha ağır geçirildiği bilinen COVID19, SMA hastalıklı bireylerde ciddi komplikasyonlara yol açabilir. Bununla birlikte COVID 19’un SMA hastalarındaki seyri ve nusinersen tedavisi üzerine etkisi ile ilgili bir literatür ya da vaka sunumu henüz bildirilmemiştir. Amacımız aile içi bireyleri SARS CoV 2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) negatif iken kendisi pozitif olan asemptomatik SARS CoV 2 taşıyıcısı SMA Tip 1 tanılı nusinersen tedavisi verdiğimiz 3,5 aylık bir kız olguyu sunarak gelecekte de dünya genelinde etkisini sürdüreceğini düşündüğümüz SARSCoV 2 pozitif SMA hastalarının yönetimi ile ilgili literatüre katkıda bulunmaktır.
