Longus colli kasının kalsifik tendiniti

Longus colli kalsifik tendiniti inflamatuar bir süreç olup longis kolli kasının süperior oblik kasında kalsiyum hidroksiapatit kristallerinin birikmesi sonucu oluşur. Retrofarengeal kalsifik tendinit veya akut kalsifik prevertebral tendinit olarak ta adlandırılır. Boyun ağrısının nadir bir nedeni olup klinik olarak disfaji,odinofaji ve bazen hafif ateş ile seyredebilir. Labaratuar bulgusu olarak hafif lökosit ve sedimentasyon artışı olabilir. Tanısı radyolojik olarak anterior C1- C2 vertebrada kalsifikasyonun görülmesi ve prevertebral yumuşak doku şişliğinin gösterilmesi ile konulur. Biz boyun fıtığı nedeniyle opere olan hastada boyun ağrısı ve disfaji şikayeti ile başvuran longus colli kalsifik tendinitli hastayı sunacağız.Türkçe Kısa Başlık: Longus colli kasının kalsifik tendiniti

Calcific tendinitis of longus colli muscle

Calcific tendinitis of the longus colli muscle is an inflammatory process resulting from the deposition of calcium hydroxyapatite crystals in the superior oblique muscle of the longus colli muscle. This is also referred to as retropharyngeal calcific tendinitis or acute calcific prevertebral tendinitis. It is a rare cause of neck pain, and may be clinically accompanied by dysphagia, odynophagia and occasionally slight fever. Laboratory findings may include slightly increased leukocyte count and sedimentation. It is diagnosed with radiologic imaging of calcification in the anterior vertebrae (C1-C2), and prevertebral soft tissue swelling.We shall be presenting a case report of a patient with calcific tendinitis of the longus colli muscle admitted with complaints of neck pain and dysphagia, and operated due to cervical disc herniation.İngilizce Kısa Başlık: Calcific tendinitis of longus colli muscle
