Dermatolojik Açıdan Labial Füzyon: Prospektif Çalışma

Amaç:Labial füzyon, prepubertal kızlarda sık görülen bir durumdur ve çeşitli komplikasyonları vardır. Bazı dermatolojik durumlar bu hastalık için etiyolojik faktör olarak bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı çocuklarda labial füzyonun etiyolojik faktörlerini dermatolojik olarak değerlendirmek; sosyodemografik ve çevresel verilerini sağlıklı çocuklarınkilerle karşılaştırmaktır. Materyal ve Metot:Bu kesitsel prospektif çalışmada, 23 tane labial füzyon olgusu ve 49 tane yaş cinsiyetine uygun sağlıklı denekler dermatolojik açıdan değerlendirildi ve tümüne bir anket uygulandı. Bulgular:Kontrol grubunda; annelerin %35’I üniversite mezunudur. Labial füzyonlu çocuklarda annelerin %35’'i ilkokuldan ve %26’sı üniversiteden mezun bulunmuştur. Atopik aile öyküsü ve hastaların atopic hastalık öyküsü, labial füzyon grubunda sağlıklı kontrollere gore daha yüksekti (p
