Özet

Bu olgu sunumunda Şişli Etfal Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Çocuk Enfeksiyon Kliniği’nde pnömoni sebebiyle yatarak tedavi gören ve her iki gözde hiperemi görülmesi sebebiyle kliniğimize konsulte edilip konjonktival telenjiektazi tespit edilen 7 yaşındaki erkek hastanın klinik olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Hastanın ayrıntılı oftalmolojik muayenesi sonrası saptanan konjonktival telenjiektaziler, diğer klinik bulgular, laboratuar ve görüntüleme sonuçları ile aile öyküsü de dikkate alınarak ataksi telenjiektazide görülen göz bulguları olarak değerlendirildi.
