19-jährige türkische Patientin mit rezidivierenden abdominellen Schmerzen und Fieber Molekulargenetische Untersuchung ermöglicht definitive Diagnose

J. Ascherl; Werner Schmidbaur; Martin Wienbeck; Peter Lohse

ZusammenfassungEine 19-jährige türkische Patientin leidet seit 7 Jahren unter rezidivierenden abdominellen Schmerzen und Fieberschüben mit Erhöhung der laborchemischen Entzündungsparameter. Die Beschwerden klingen innerhalb weniger Tage spontan wieder ab. Mehrfache stationäre Aufenthalte führen zu keiner Klärung der Ursache. Diese Anamnese ist typisch für ein familiäres Mittelmeerfieber. Mittlerweile sind klinische Kriterien definiert, die eine Diagnosestellung mit großer Sicherheit erlauben. Darüber hinaus ist eine molekulargenetische Untersuchung des bei dieser Erkrankung veränderten Marenostrin/Pyrin-Gens zum Nachweis der kausalen Mutation(en) möglich. Diese muss im Falle eines positiven Ergebnisses auch bei den Geschwistern des Indexpatienten durchgeführt werden. Durch die frühzeitige Identifizierung von Betroffenen kann rechtzeitig mit einer lebenslangen Colchicintherapie begonnen werden, die in einem Großteil der Fälle neue Episoden der Erkrankung und eine Amyloidose vor allem der Nieren verhindern hilft.

The use of ABP in reducing local wound infection rates after PEG insertion is controversial. Previous observations suggested that patients with malignant tumors are at high risk of developing local infections after receiving a PEG. Aim of this study was to test if patients with malignant tumors benefit from an ABP prior to PEG insertion. Methods: Prospective randomized study with 25 patients with malignant tumors receiving their first PEG (thread pull method). Group 1 received an ABP with 2g cefotiam i.v. prior to PEG insertion, group 2 received no ABP. The rate and severity of local infections in the 4 days after PEG insertion were estimated by a score (value 0-21) consisting of the following parameters: Signs of infection at the site of insertion (0-4), local pain (0-3), systemic complications (0-2), body temperature (0-4) and rise in blood leucocytes (0-4) and CRP (0-4) between day 0 and 4 after PEG insertion. Results: Local infections occurred in 11/25 pts (44%): in group 1 in 4/14 pts (29%) and in group 2 in 7/11 pts (63%). Severe local infections were not observed in group 1, but occurred in 5 pts in group 2 (3 purulent secretions, 2 erythemata with secretion). The mean score value in group 1 (2.5±0.8) was significantly lower (p=0.019, Mann-Whitney test) than in group 2 (5.9±1.1)(Fig). The PEG had to be removed due to local infection in 2 pts in group 2, but in none of group 1. Conclusion: Patients with malignant tumors have a high risk of developing local infections after PEG insertion. An antibiotic propylaxis with cefotiam is able to lower the rate and particularly the severity of local infections. It should be recommended in all patients with malignant tumors.
