Abstract

– A 3-year-old girl with the diagnosis of chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) was hospitalized for bronchopneumonia and congestive heart failure. Her medical history included methylprednisolone medication for autoimmune gastric outlet obstruction. Computed tomography revealed pneumonic infiltrations and pericardial thickening. A pulsed-wave Doppler recording revealed E/A >1. During a pericardiectomy, multiple islands of thick, firm-walled, fibrinous exudate-containing, small abscess formations were observed. Histopathological evaluation of pericardial tissue revealed granulomatous inflammation. Aspergillus fumigatus was cultured from the abscess. In conclusion, development of constrictive aspergillus pericarditis should be considered in patients with CGD because immediate initiation of antifungal management with aggressive surgical treatment is life-saving

Özet

- Kronik granülomatöz hastalık (KGH) tanısı konmuş üç yaşında bir kız çocuğu bronkopnömoni ve konjestif kalp yetersizliği tanıları ile hastaneye yatırıldı. Tıbbi öyküsünde mide çıkım yolunda otoimmün darlık nedeniyle metilpred- nizolon tedavisi bulunmaktaydı. Bilgisayarlı tomografide pnömonik infiltrasyonlar ve perikart kalınlaşması saptandı. Darbeli-dalga Doppler incelemesinde E/A >1 saptandı. Pe- rikardiyektomi sırasında fibrinöz eksuda içeren çoklu adalar şeklinde, kalın duvarlı apse oluşumları mevcuttu. Perikardın histopatolojik incelemesinde granülomatöz enflamasyon saptandı. Apse'den yapılan kültürde aspergillus fumigatus üredi. Sonuç olarak, KGH'li olan hastalarda konstriktif as- pergillus perikarditi dkkate alınmalıdır çünkü beklemeden anti-fungal tedavinin başlanması ile birlikte agresif cerrahi tedavi hayat kurtarıcıdır
