Özet
Günümüzde, steroid dirençli gastrointestinal (Gİ) graft versus host hastalığı (GvHH) allogeneik transplantasyon yapılan hastalarda izlenen en sık komplikasyonlardan biridir ve henüz standart bir tedavi yaklaşımı yoktur. Burada, steroid refrakter GvHH olan iki vakanın intramezenterik steroid uygulamasına dair sonuçları bildirilmiştir. Her iki hastada intramezenterik metilprednizolon (MP) enjeksiyonunu takiben diarenin sıklığı ve miktarı tamamen düzelmiştir. Sonuç olarak, intra-arteriel steroid verilimi bu tip olgularda alternative bir tedavi yaklaşımı olabilir.
Currently, steroid-refractory severe gastrointestinal (GI) graft versus host disease (GVHD) is among the most important complications of allogeneic transplantation, and as yet there is no standard approach to its treatment. Herein we report two cases with steroid-refractory GI GVHD that received intramesenteric steroid treatment. In both cases the frequency and volume of diarrhea resolved completely following intramesenteric methylprednisolone (MP) injection. In conclusion, intra-arterial steroid injection might be an alternative treatment approach for steroid-refractory GI GVHD.
