Abstract

SUMMARY

Actinomycosis is a chronic disease characterized by abscess formation, tissue fibrosis, and draining sinuses. While cervical and thoracic localizations are most frequent, digestive actinomycosis is rare. To the best of our knowledge, actinomycosis-related esophageal involvement has not been reported previously in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia. Therefore, we wanted to report this esophageal actinomycosis case presenting with odinophagia and dysphasia.

Keywords: Actinomycosis, acute myeloid leukemia, esophagus.

ÖZET

Aktinomikoz, abse oluşumu, doku fibrozisi ve drene olan sinüslerle karakterize kronik bir hastalıktır. Servikal ve torasik yerleşim en sık görülen formlar iken sindirim sistemi tutulumu nadirdir. Bilgilerimize göre, akut myeloid lösemili bir hastada gelişen aktinimikoz ilişkili özefagial tutulum daha önce rapor edilmemiştir. Bundan dolayı, odinofaji ve disfaji ile başvuran özefagial aktinomikoz vakası sunulmuştur.

Anahtar sözcükler: Aktinomikoz, akut myeloid lösemi, özefagus.
