Vertigo Hastalarında Demografik, Klinik, Laboratuvar ve Radyolojik Bulguların Birbirleriyle İlişkisi
Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışmada, vertigolu hastalardaki demografik, klinik, laboratuvar ve radyolojik bulguların dağılımı ve birbirleriyle ilişkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Şubat 2024-Ocak 2025 tarihleri arasında Van Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi Kulak Burun Boğaz Hastalıkları polikliniğine baş dönmesi şikayeti ile başvuran hastalar incelendi. Çalışmaya toplam 100 hasta dahil edildi. İstatistiksel analizler yapılarak hastalardaki demografik, klinik, laboratuvar ve radyolojik bulguların dağılımı ve birbirleriyle ilişkisi değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların yaş ortalaması 39.73±12.83 ve %67'si kadın idi. Kadın hastalardaki vertigo daha şiddetliydi (p=0.002). Hastalarda en sık görülen ek hastalık %14 oranı ile hipertansiyon idi. Aneminin laboratuvar belirteçleri ile vertigo şiddeti arasında anlamlı negatif korelasyonlar bulundu (p<0.05). Hastaların yaklaşık %50'sine benign paroksismal pozisyonel vertigo (BPPV) tanısı kondu. Diğer sık nedenler Meniere hastalığı, servikal vertigo, vestibuler migren idi. Laboratuvar ve radyolojik değerlendirmeler ile birçok komorbidite, tümör ve multipl skleroz gibi ciddi tanılar belirlendi. Sonuç: Vertigolu hastaların çoğu kadındır ve anemi vertigo şiddeti ile ilişkilidir. En sık neden BPPV' dir. Çoğu hasta, anamnez ve fizik muayene ile çözülebilmektedir. Ayrıntılı tanı, ayırıcı tanı, komorbiditeleri belirlemek ve ciddi nedenleri ayırt etmek için laboratuvar ve radyolojik değerlendirmeler yapılabilir.
Materials and Methods: Between February 2024 and January 2025, patients presenting to the Otorhinolaryngology outpatient clinic of Van Yüzüncü Yıl University Medical Faculty Hospital with complaints of vertigo were analysed. A total of 100 patients were included in the study. The distribution of demographic, clinical, laboratory and radiological findings in the patients and their relationship with each other were evaluated by performing statistical analyses. Results: The mean age of the patients was 39.73±12.83 and 67% were female. Vertigo was more severe in female patients (p=0.002). The most common comorbidity was hypertension with a rate of 14%. There were significant negative correlations between laboratory markers of anemia and vertigo severity (p<0.05). Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) was diagnosed in approximately 50% of the patients. Other common causes were Meniere's disease, cervical vertigo and vestibular migraine. Laboratory and radiological evaluations identified many comorbidities and serious diagnoses such as tumors and multiple sclerosis. Conclusion: Most patients with vertigo are women and anemia is associated with vertigo severity. The most common cause is BPPV. Most patients can be solved with anamnesis and physical examination. Laboratory and radiological evaluations can be performed for detailed diagnosis, differential diagnosis, identification of comorbidities and differentiation of serious causes.
