Talasemilerde Solunum Sistemi Bozuklukları

Talasemi majör, tüm dünyada önemli bir sağlık sorunu olup, yüksek maliyetli tedavi gerektiren bir hastalıktır. Hastaların çoğu ikinci dekatta tedaviye bağlı komplikasyonlar nedeniyle kaybedilmektedir. Son yıllarda kullanıma giren yeni tedavi rejimleri ve tedaviye bağlı komplikasyonların dikkatli bir şekilde izlenmesiyle hastaların beklenen yaşam süreleri artmaktadır. Düzenli kan transfüzyonları nedeniyle kalp, karaciğer ve akciğer gibi hayati organlarda ilerleyici demir birikimi görülmektedir. Akciğer de demir birikiminin yaşandığı organlardan birisidir. Akciğerlerdeki demir birikimi akciğer dinamiklerinde değişikliklere yol açmakta ve bu durum hastaların yaşam kalitesini olumsuz etkilemektedir. Bu hastalarda akciğerlerde demir birikiminin olduğu uzun süreden beri bilinen bir gerçek ise de, bu birikimin akciğerler üzerine nasıl etkide bulunduğu konusu hala tartışma konusudur

Respiratory System Disorders in Thalasemia

Thalassemia major is a worldwide healthcare problem requiring high cost medical treatment. Patients usually die of treatment associated complications in the second decade. However, improvements in treatment and meticulous follow-up strategies for treatment associated complications have led to an increase in expected life span of the patients. Regular transfusions cause progressive iron deposition in critical organs such as heart, liver and lungs. Iron deposition in the lungs results in respiratory dysfunction and impairment in quality of life of patients with thallassemia. Although iron deposition in respiratory system has been a known reality for many years in thallassemia, the effect of this deposition on respiratory functions has been an ongoing debate
