Abstract

Fibromyalgia (FM) is one of the main causes of chronic diffuse musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, cognitive impairment, psychiatric symptoms and multiple somatic symptoms. FM may be commonly associated with rheumatic diseases but may sometimes lead to misdiagnosis by mimicking rheumatic diseases. A careful history and detailed physical examination are required for the diagnosis of FM, there is nonspecific laboratory test or radiological imaging method for the diagnosis of the disease. In this paper, we want to draw attention to FM by presenting a case of FM accompanied by diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) and undifferentiated connective tissue disease (UTCD), which had difficulties in diagnosis and treatment

Romatizmal hastalıklarda karıştırıcı faktör olarak fibromyalji

Abstract

Fibromiyalji (FM) yorgunluk, kognitif bozukluk, psikiyatrik semptomlar ve çoklu somatik semptomların eşlik ettiği kronik yaygın kas-iskelet ağrısının başlıca nedenlerinden biridir. FM yaygın olarak romatizmal hastalıklara eşlik edebilmekle birlikte, bazen de romatizmal hastalıkları taklit ederek yanlış tanılara yol açabilmektedir. FM’nin tanısı için dikkatli alınmış bir öykü ve detaylı fizik muayene gerekmektedir, hastalığın tanısı için özgül bir laboratuvar testi veya radyolojik görüntüleme yöntemi yoktur. Bu yazıda diffüz idiopatik skeletal hiperostozis (DISH) ve belirlenemeyen bağ doku hastalığına (BDH) eşlik eden, tanı ve tedavi sürecinde güçlük yaşanan bir FM olgusunu sunarak, romatizmal hastalıklara sıklıkla eşlik edebilen FM hastalığına dikkat çekmek istedik
