Kabergolinle Tedavi Edilen Postoperatif Süt Fistülü

Süt fistülü, laktiferöz bir kanal ile cilt arasında genellikle cerrahi sonrası oluşan bir yoldur. Oluşum sürecini açıklayan çeşitli hipotezler ortaya atılmıştır.23 yaşında emziren bir anne kliniğimize mastalji şikayeti ile başvurdu. Yapılan muayenede saptanan palpabl kitlenin ultrasonografisi 21x15 mm’lik lobüle irregüler sınırlı malign şüphesi taşıyan kitleyi ortaya koydu. Eksizyonel biyopsi sonrası 3. Günde süt fistülü gelişti. Yara pansumanı ve geniş spektrumlu antibiyotik başlandı. Süt fistülüne yönelik kabergolin 0,5 mg tablet haftada iki kez oral yolla uygulandı. Postoperatif ikinci haftada drenaj tamamen kesildi ve yara spontan olarak iyileşti. Süt fistülü her ne kadar yaygın olmasa da,can sıkıcı bir komplikasyondur.Fistüller,primer sütürasyon veya spontan granülasyonla iyileşir. Sıklıkla oral antibiyotikler kullanılır. Vakamızda kabergolin hassas yara bakımı tedavisi ile birlikte etkili olmuştur,fistül primer sütürasyona gerek kalmadan spontan granülasyonla iyileşmiştir

Postoperative Milk Fistula Treated with Cabergoline

A milk fistula is a tract between a lactiferous duct and the skin, and usually results from a surgical operation. Several hypotheses have been proposed to explain the pathologic process. We herein report a case of a 23-year-old breastfeeding mother who has consulted us for the evaluation of her mastalgia. Breast ultrasonography confirmed the presence of a 21- × 15-mm lobulated lesion with an irregular contour. A milk fistula developed on the 3rd postoperative day. Intensive wound care and administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics were then performed. Medical management of the fistula involved treatment with oral cabergoline, which was begun at 0.5 mg twice per week. Two weeks after the operation, the wound was totally clear of any drainage and subsequently healed spontaneously. However, milk fistula is an uncommon complication. Milk fistulas are usually treated with primary closure or heal by spontaneous granulation. Oral antibiotics are usually administered. In our case, cabergoline treatment with intensive wound care was effective without the need for primary closure.
