Lignöz Konjonktivit

Lignöz konjonktivit oldukça nadir görülen konjonktivitlerden olup hem hasta hem de hekim için üstesinden gelmesi zorluk oluşturan bir tablodur. Sıklıkla iki gözü de tutan lignöz konkonktivit odunumsu görünümümde yalancı membran oluşumu ile karakterizedir. Göz kapakları ters çevrildiğinde tüm konjonktivayı kaplamış olarak görülen lezyon, fibrinden zengin olup sarımsı mukoid bir akıntı ile örtülmüş olabilir. Lezyon tedavi edilse bile tekrarlama eğilimindedir. Lignöz konjonktivitin plazminojen defekti ile ilişkili olduğu gösterilmiştir. Lezyonlar konjonktiva dışında vücuttaki diğer mukozalarda da ortaya çıkabilir. Lignöz konjonktivite eşlik eden diğer sistemik patolojiler de bildirilmiştir. Son yıllarda tedavisinde yeni yöntemler uygulanmaya çalışılmaktadır. Az rastlanan bu konjonktivit türünün zamanında ve doğru teşhis edilip tedavisinin doğru yönetilmesi önem arz etmektedir. Makalede lignöz konjonktivitin klinik, tarihçe, patogenez ve güncel tedavileri ile ilgili bilgiler verilmiştir.

Ligneous Conjunctivitis

Ligneous conjunctivitis is one of the very rarelyseen conjunctivitis and a clinical picture that isdifficult to manage for both patient and physician. Ligneous conjunctivitis, often bilateral, ischaracterized by pseudomembran formationwith ligneous-like appearance. It is seen as fibrin-rich and firm material covering the all areaof the palpebral conjunctiva with overlying yellow mucoid discharge when lids are inverted.Lesions have a tendency of recurrence even iftreated suitably. Association of ligneous conjunctivitis with systemic plasminogen deficiency has been shown. Lesions may also developin the other mucosal structures of the body.Concurrent or accompanied systemic pathologies together with its presentation have beenreported. New treatment modalities have beentried to apply for management of ligneous conjunctivitis in individual case reports in recentyears. It is important to early and correct diagnosis of this type of conjunctivitis as well as suitable management. Update information aboutpresentation, history, etiopatogenesis and management of ligneous conjunctivitis has beengiven in this review article
