Abstract

Background and Design: The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of skin diseases during childhood. Material and Method: A retrospective descriptive study was planned. Among 18318 patients referred to our dermatology outpatient clinic between September 2004 and November 2009, 1756 child patients between 0-12 years of age were retrospectively analyzed from automation record system. Results: A total of 1756 child patients who referred during the study period were included in the study; 791 patients were male (45.05%) and 965 were female (54.95%). The most frequently seen disease group was eczema (26.0%), followed by infectious dermatosis (20.6%) and eritematous squamous dermatosis (9.9%). Atopic dermatitis (8.0%), viral dermatosis (11.7%) and seborrheic dermatitis (7.1%) were the most frequently encountered diseases in eczema, infectious dermatosis and eritematous squamous dermatosis groups, respectively. Conclusion: We found that 56.5% of the diseases determined were composed of eczemas, infectious dermatosis and eritematous squamous dermatosis.

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmada çocukluk çağındaki deri hastalıklarının dağılımının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Geriye dönük tanımlayıcı bir çalışma planlandı. Eylül 2004 ile Kasım 2009 tarihleri arasında Dermatoloji polikliniğimize başvuran 18318 hastadan 0 ile 12 yaş arasındaki 1756 çocuk hasta, otomasyon dosya sisteminden retrospektif olarak analiz edildi. Bulgular: Çalışma süresince başvuran toplam 1756 çocuk hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi; hastaların 791’i (%45,05) erkek, 965’i (%54,95) kız çocuğuydu. En sık görülen hastalık grubu ekzemalar (%26,0) olup bunu sırasıyla infeksiyöz dermatozlar (%20,6), eritemli skuamlı dermatozlar (%9,9) izledi. Ekzema grubunda en sık atopik dermatit (%8,0), infeksiyöz dermatoz grubunda en sık viral dermatozlar (%11,7) ve eritemli skuamlı dermatoz grubunda da en sık seboreik dermatit (%7,1) görülmüştür. Sonuç: Tespit ettiğimiz hastalıkların %56.5’ini ekzemalar, infeksiyöz dermatozlar ve eritemli skuamlı dermatozların oluşturduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
