Sarı tırnak sendromu (bir olgu nedeniyle)

Sarı tırnak sendromu; sarı renkli tırnaklar, lenfödem ve plevral efüzyon triadından oluşan genellikle otozomal dominant geçiş gösteren bir hastalıktır. Bu yazıda doğuştan itibaren lenfödem, perikardial effüzyon tanısıyla takip edilen ve sarı tırnak sendromu tanısı konulan 13 aylık bir kız çocuğu sunulmuştur. Sarı tırnak sendromu klinik belirtilerinin sıklıkla puberte sonrasında daha belirgin olması nedeniyle geç tanı almaktadır. Bununla birlikte yenidoğan veya süt çocuğu döneminde lenfödemi ve perikardial effüzyonu olan hastalarda sarı tırnak sendromu akılda tutulmalıdır.
