Abstract

Orf, a zoonosis transmitted from sheep and goat to human, is caused by Parapoxvirus. It is more common among occupational groups who are in close contact with animals. On the other hand after the feast of sacrifice or in spring and summer, it causes epidemic and threatens human health. It is mainly seen as papulonodular lesions on hands. Diagnosis is based on clinical findings, histological examination and viral DNA detection. However, it is usually diagnosed on the basis of exposure history and observation of characteristic lesions. Although it is rarely complicated, orf spontaneously recovers in general and does not require treatment. In this report, we presented three complicated orf cases demonstrating erythema multiforme, lymphangitis, and bullous pemphigoid.

Özet

Orf, koyun ve keçi gibi küçükbaş hayvanlardan insana bulaşan Parapoxvirus'un etken olduğu bir zoonozdur. Daha çok hayvanlarla temasın sık olduğu meslek gruplarında görülür. Kurban bayramları sonrasında veya bahar ve yaz aylarında epidemiler yapmakta ve insan sağlığını tehdit etmektedir. En çok ellerde yerleşen papülonodüler lezyonlar şeklinde görülür. Hastalığın tanısı klinik bulgular, histolojik inceleme ve virus DNA'sının tespitine dayanır. Ancak genellikle temas öyküsü ve karakteristik lezyonların görülmesiyle tanı konmaktadır. Nadiren komplikasyonlar görülürse de orf, genellikle spontan olarak iyileşmekte ve tedavi gerektirmemektedir. Bu yazıda erythema multiforme, lenfanjit ve büllöz pemfigoid gelişen üç komplike orf olgusu sunulmuştur.
