ÖZET
Romatoid artrit; toplumun yaklaşık %1’ini etkileyen sistemik, kronik, inflamatuar bir hastalıktır.
Tuttuğu eklemlerde destrüksiyonla seyretmektedir. En sık el, ayak ve servikal bölgedeki eklemleri
etkilemektedir. Klinik olarak nörolojik defisit, ölüm gibi ciddi sonuçlara yol açan servikal
omurga tutulumu için bazı risk faktörleri bulunmaktadır. Yüksek hastalık aktivitesi de bunlardan biridir.
Metotreksat başta olmak üzere, hastalık modifiye edici antiromatizmal ilaçlar romatoid artrit aktivitesini
baskılamakta, eklem destrüksiyonlarını azaltmakta ve servikal omurga tutulumu gibi ciddi
komplikasyonları önleyebilmektedir. Ancak, bu tedavinin başarıya ulaşabilmesi için hastanın tedaviye
uyumu ve sıkı takip gerekmektedir. Tedaviye uyumu olumlu ve olumsuz etkileyen birçok faktör saptanmıştır.
Düşük sosyoekonomik düzey bu olumsuz faktörlerin başında gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada, 16
yıl önce romatoid artrit tanısı almış ama tedaviye devam edememiş evsiz bir olguda gelişen atlantoaksiyel
subluksasyon ve tetraparezi kliniği ile rehabilitasyonunun anlatılması amaçlanmıştır.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Romatoid artrit; servikal instabilite; tetrapleji, tedaviye uyum; rehabilitasyon
ABSTRACT
Rheumatoid arthritis; is a systemic, chronic, inflammatory disease affecting approximately
1% of the population. It affects destruction in joints. Most commonly affect joints in the
hands, feet and cervical region. Cervical spine involvement leads to clinically serious consequences
such as neurological deficit, death. There are some risk factors for cervical spine involvement. High
disease activity is one of them. Disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, especially methotrexate,
suppress rheumatoid arthritis activity, reduce joint destruction, and prevent serious complications
such as cervical spine involvement. However, compliance with the treatment of the patient and
strict follow-up is essential for this treatment to be successful. A number of factors have been identified
that affect treatment compliance in a positive and negative way. Low socioeconomic level is
one of these negative factors. In this case; atlanto-axial subluxation, post-operative tetraparesis clinic
and rehabilitation was described in a homeless patient who had been diagnosed with rheumatoid
arthritis 16 years ago.
Keywords: Rheumatoid arthritis; cervical instability; tetraplegia; adherence to treatment; rehabilitation
