Abstract

Although reactive thrombocytosis is a frequent condition in childhood infectious diseases, it is especially frequent in patients with lower respiratory tract infections. In this study, we aimed to search the incidence of thrombocytosis in patients hospitalized with pneumonia. This study has been performed on 150 lower tract infection cases aged between 1-10 years-old. Platelet counts of children who had lower respiratory tract infections such as pneumonia and empyema,lobar pneumonia,and viral pneumonia, were investigated. Thrombocytosis were dptermined to be 84%, 44% and 22% in patients with pneumonia and empyema, lobar pneumonia and viral pneumonia, respectively. The mean of peak platelet counts were significantly higher in the pneumonia and empyema group (780.760±284.564/mm3). There was statistically no significant difference of age and sex among the 3 groups. In conclusion, reactive thrombocytosis was seen more frequently in bacterial infections than viral infections,

Özet

Reaktif trombositoz çocukluk çağı infeksiyon hastalıklarında sık görülen bir durum olmasına karşın, alt solunum yolu infeksiyonu bulunan hastalarda özellikle daha sık görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada kliniğimizde pnömoni nedeni ile yatan hastalarda trombositoz sıklığını göstermeyi amaçladık. 1-10 yaş arasında alt solunum yolu infeksiyonu bulunan 150 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Pnömoni ve ampiyem, lober pnömoni ve viral pnömoni gibi alt solunum yolu infeksiyonu olan çocukların trombosit sayıları incelendi.Trombositoz oranı pnömoni ve ampiyem grubunda % 84 , lober pnömoni grubunda % 44, viral pnömoni grubunda ise % 22 olarak tesbit edildi. Ölçülen en yüksek trombosit sayısı ortalaması pnömoni ve ampiyem grubunda (780.760± 284.564 / mm3) diğer iki gruba göre anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu. Gruplar arasında trombositoz görülenlerde yaş dağılımı ve cinsiyetler arasında anlamlı fark bulunmadı. İnfeksiyonlar reaktif trombositozun en sık sebebidir. Bakteriyel infeksiyonlarda viral infeksiyonlara göre trombositoz sıklığı ve şiddeti daha yüksek olmaktadır.
