Sjögren Sendromu’nda Hidroksiklorokinin Unutulan Etkisi: Ototoksisite
Amaç: Sjögren sendromu kronik, otoimmün ve enflamatuvar bir hastalıktır. Sensörinöral işitme kaybı kulak tutulumu olarak bilinir, ancak sebebi henüz bilinmemektedir. Hidroksiklorokin uzun süredir Sjögren tedavisinde kullanılmaktadır ve ototoksik etkileri olduğu bilinmektedir. Çalışmamızda Sjögren’deki işitme kaybının hidroksiklorokin kullanımı ile korelasyonu açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Prospektif bir çalışma planlandı ve Sjögren sendromlu hastalar iki gruba ayrıldı. Grup 1, 20 hastadan oluşmaktaydı ve bunlar ilaç tedavisi altında olan hastalardı. Grup 2, 15 hastadan oluşmaktaydı ve henüz hidroksiklorokin kullanmaya başlamamış hastalardan oluşmaktaydı. Tüm hastalara pure tone odyometri incelemesi yapılmış ve sonuçlar değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Odyografide her iki kulak için 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz ve 2000 Hz’de gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark yoktu (p>0,05). Sol kulakta 4000 Hz’de ve sağ kulakta 8000 Hz’de ve her iki kulakta 10.000 Hz’de anlamlı fark elde edildi (p>0,05). Sağda 4000 Hz’de ve solda 8000 Hz’de anlamlı fark elde edilmedi (p>0,05). Sonuç: Sjögren sendromunda özellikle yüksek frekanslarda sensörinöral işitme kaybı görülebilir. İşitme kaybı hastalığın süresi ile ilişkili olabileceği gibi tedavisinde sıklıkla kullanılan ototoksik olduğu bilinen hidroksiklorokin sebebi ile olabilir. Çalışmamızda da ilacın bu hastalıkta işitme üzerinde etkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Tedavide kullanılan ilaç işitme kaybını hızlandırıyor olabilir ya da işitme kaybının tek sebebi de olabilir.
Forgotten Effect of Hydroxychloroquine in the Sjogren’s Syndrome: Ototoxicity
Objectives: Sjogren’s syndrome is a chronic, autoimmune and inflammatory disease. Sensorineural hearing loss is reported in ear involvement but the cause of this hearing loss is not known yet. Hydroxychloroquine has been long known to have ototoxic effects and it is often used in Sjogren treatment. In our study, we tried to explain the correlation of hearing loss in Sjogren with hydroxychloroquine use. Materials and Methods: A prospective control study was designed and Sjogren syndrome patients were divided into two. Group 1 consist of 20 patients with drug usage. Group 2 consist of 15 patients without drug usage. Pure tone audiometric examination was done to all patients. Results were analyzed. Results: There was not any statistically significant difference between the groups for either ear at 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2000 Hz in the audiograph (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference at 4000 Hz in the left ear and 8000 Hz in the right ear and at 10,000 Hz in both ears (p0.05). Conclusion: Sensorineural hearing loss can occur particularly at high frequencies in the Sjogren’s syndrome. This can be related to the duration of the disease or maybe it can occur due to hydroxychloroquine that is commonly used in treatment and known to be ototoxic. In our study, it was found that this drug had an impact on hearing loss. As the drug can accelerate the hearing loss that is already anticipated, it can also be completely responsible for the hearing loss by itself.
