Abstract

Background: Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is a com- mon childhood illness characterized by fever and vesicular eruptions on the hands, feet, and mouth. We aimed to evaluate the clinical presentation of our patients with the disease. Methods: Hospital records of children admitted from January 2011 to January 2013 to Yeditepe University Hospital, Depart- ment of Pediatrics were evaluated retrospectively. Demograph- ic data, complaints, and physical examination findings were evaluated. Results: There were 127 children with a mean age of 3.32±2.58 years (9 months-15 years), 65.3% were (n=83) boys, and 34.7% girls (n=44). Admissions according to years were as follows: 19.7% (n=25) 2011 and 80.3% (n=102) in 2012. The admissions were more common in June, July, and August (61.2%). The most common complaint was eruption (64.5%) and fever (61.4%). Body temperature varied between 36.0-40.00 oC. Physical ex- amination revealed eruptions on the hands and feet among all patients (100.0%) and the enanthem in oral mucosa in 94 pa- tients (74.0%). Blood test was performed in 20 patients, mean WBC count was 10.424±3.770/mm3 (4.800 -18.890), mean CRP was 19.1±24.65 (2.8-115.0) and mean ESR was 28.45±12.97 mm/hour (13-57). Seven patients were hospitalized (5.5%) due to fever, loss of oral intake, and dehydration. Conclusion: Our results show that HFMD increased in 2012. The disease was commonly seen among children aged 3 years, while the most common findings were fever, eruption, and en- anthem. HFMD should be kept in mind among preschool chil- dren with fever and eruptions.

Özet

Amaç: El-ayak-ağız hastalığı, ateş ve el, ayak ve ağızda ve- ziküler lezyonlarla seyreden bir hastalıktır. Döküntü şikayeti ile başvuran çocuk hastalarda son dönemde artış gösteren el-ayak-ağız hastalığına dikkat çekmeyi amaçladık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Yeditepe Üniversitesi Hastanesi Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Bölümüne Ocak 2011-Ocak 2013 ta- rihleri arasında başvurup el-ayak-ağız hastalığı tanısı alan 127 çocuk hastanın geriye dönük olarak demografik veriler, şikayetler ve fizik muayene bulguları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 3.32±2.58 yaş (9 ay-15 yaş) olup %65.3ü (n=83) erkek ve %34.7si (n=44) kız idi. Hastaların %19.7si (n=25) 2011 yılında ve %80.3ü (n=102) 2012 yılında başvurmuş olup en sık başvurunun Haziran, Temmuz ve Ağustos aylarında olduğu (%61.2) görüldü. En sık başvuru şikayeti döküntü (%64.5) ve ateş (%61.4) idi. Öl- çülen vücut ısısı 36.0-40.0°C arasında değişmekte idi. Fizik muayenede tüm hastalarda (%100.0) avuç içi ve ayak taba- nında döküntü saptanırken 94 hastada (%74.0) enantem tespit edildi. Kan incelemesi yapılan 20 hastanın ortalama lökosit değeri 10.424±3.770/mm3 (4.800-18.890), ortalama C-reaktif protein değeri 19.1±24.65 (2.8-115.0) ve ortalama eritrosit sedimentasyon hızı 28.45±12.97 mm/saat (13-57) olarak bulundu. Hastaların yedisi (%5.5) ateş, oral alım azlığı ve dehidratasyon nedeniyle yatırılarak tedavi edildi. Sonuç: 2012 yılında el-ayak-ağız hastalığında artış olmuştur. Hastalık üç yaşta daha sık görülmüş olup en sık bulguları ateş, döküntü ve enantem idi. Döküntü şikayeti ile başvuran hastada el-ayak-ağız hastalığı düşünülmelidir.
