Özet

Amaç: Pediatrik yaş gurubunda son derece nadir görülen oküler rozaseanın klinik özelliklerini ve tedavi yaklaşımlarını gözden geçirmektir. Yöntem: Sol gözünde posterior blefarit. meibomianit. kapak kenarında telenjektaziler. tekrarlayan şalazyon ve punktat keratit gibi unilateral oküler lezyonlarla birlikte. burun ucunda eritem. ödem. telanjiektazi ve papül ve püstüller nedeniyle erken rinofimayı düşündüren lezyonlarla karakterize 11 yaşında bir pediyatrik rozasea olgusu sunulmaktadır. Bulgular: Topikal sodium fusidat ve florometalon tedavisiyle oküler lezyonlarda iyileşmeler. oral doksisiklin. topikal medranidazol tedavisiyle de kutanöz lezyonlarında düzelmeler tespit edildi. Kapak bakımı ve durumu etkileyebilecek olası zararlı faktörler hakkında olgu ve ailesi bilgilendirildi. Altı aylık takipte nüks gözlenmedi. Sonuç: Pediatrik yaş gurubunda başlayabilen oküler rozasaedan haberdar olmak önemlidir. Ayrıca uygun tedavi. koruyucu önlemler ve uzun süreli takip hastalığın morbiditesini azaltabilir.
