Özet
Sever hastalığı genellikle 10-13 yaşları arasındaki erkeklerde görülen kalkaneusun osteokondrozudur. Bir veya her iki topukta ağrı vardır. Ağrı genellikle Aşil tendonunun kalkaneusa yapışma yerindedir. Tanı fizik muayene ile konur ancak ayırıcı tanı açısından radyolojik inceleme önerilir. İki haftadır her iki topuktaki ağrı yakınması ile başvuran 12 yaşındaki erkek olguya klinik bulgulara dayanılarak ve olası diğer nedenler ekarte edilerek Sever hastalığı tanısı konuldu. Bu olgu sunumu ile özellikle adolesan dönemdeki erkek çocuklarda herhangi bir travma olmaksızın ortaya çıkan topuk ağrılarında Sever hastalığı'nın düşünülmesi gerektiğini, aktivite kısıtlaması ve antiinflamatuar tedavi ile kolay yanıt alınabileceğini vurgulamak istedik.
Sever disease, calcaneal apophysitis, is the most common cause of heel pain in children. It frequently occurs in athletic boys 10-13 years of age, and is characterized by pain one or both heels. the pain is localized to the point of the heel where the tendo-Achilles inserts into the calcaneus. Walking on his toes relieves the pain. Diagnosis was made with clinical findings. However, radiological examination is needed to rule out other problems. the treatment is usually simple. High impact activities are discontinued during the initial phase, appropriate nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory therapy are prescribed. We report here in a 12-year-old boy with Sever disease who presented with a pain in both heels. Physicians should be aware of the clinical symptoms of Sever disease so that early protective and proactive measures and appropriate treatment can be instituted.
