Abstract

Eosinophilic granuloma one of a triad of diseases under Langerhans’ cellhistiocytosis as known as Histiocytosis X, is a rare disorder characterized withuncontrolled proliferation of histiocytes, mostly seen among children andadolescents instead of adults. Although the clinical picture is well defined,there are still unclear aspects on etiology, histology and prognosis. Here weare presenting our experiences on a case of eosinophilic granulomainterestingly in an adult patient. She was admitted with back and hip pain.After her diagnosis of sacral spine osteolytic tumor, the biopsy was performedin our clinic and her histopathology was resulted as eosinophilic granuloma. Inthis paper we are presenting the clinical and hystopathological features ofesonophilic granuloma. We aimed to contribute an additional data to theliterature on eosinophilic granuloma presented with an atypical localizationand age. According to current literature, there are only few reports on bothadults and sacrum affected with eosinophilic granuloma.

Özet

Eozinofilik granuloma, Langerhans hücreli histiositozis grubundan bir hastalık olan, Histiositozis-X olarak da bilinen, erişkinlere nazaran genellikle çocuk ve adölesanlarda izlenen, kontrolsüz çoğalan histiositlerle karakterize bir rahatsızlıktır. Klinik olarak iyi tanımlanmasına ragmen etyolojik, histolojik ve prognostik faktörler açısından hala netleşmemiş veriler bulunmaktadır. Biz bu olguda eozinofilik granüloması olan erişkin bir hastayı sunuyoruz. Bel ve kalça ağrısı ile kliniğimize başvuran hastaya yapılan incelemelerde sakrumun osteolitik tümörü düşünülerek yapılan cerrahi işlem sonrası alınan doku biyopsisinden yapılan histopatolojik inceleme sonucu eozinofilik granülom olarak gelmiştir. Klinik ve histopatolojik verilerini paylaştığımız bu yazıda amacımız literatürde nadir olarak görülen, erişkin bir hastada rastlanan eozinofilik granülom olgusuyla ilgili klinik tecrübelerimizle literatüere bir katkı sağlamaktır.
