Acil Servis'te Ölümcül Bir Tanı: Renal Kolik

Aort diseksiyonu, nadir görülen, bazı farklı hastalıkları taklit edebilen ölümcül bir hastalıktır. Daha çok erkeklerde, 50-70 yaş aralığında görülür. Hipertansiyon, etyolojisinde en önemli faktördür. Çoğunlukla yırtıcı vasıfta, ani ve şiddetli ağrı tariflenir. Distal diseksiyonlarda, malperfüzyona sonucu böbrek iskemileri, buna bağlı bel ve flank ağrısı görülebilir. Bu ağrıya benzer karakterdeki renal kolik, ciddi, aralıklı flank ağrısı olarak tanımlanır. Aort diseksiyonu, renal kolik ayırıcı tanısında yer alan ölümcül bir hastalıktır. Acil hekimleri, özellikle ileri yaştaki hastalara renal kolik tanısı koyarken dikkatli olmalı, altta yatan aort diseksiyonu gibi ölümcül bir hastalığı göz ardı etmemelidirler.
