Özet:

 

Objective: The aim of the study is to stand out the measles which is a highly contagious re-emerging viral illness and
may cause severe complications in susceptible population.
Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on patients who were diagnosed with measles in the department of
Infectious Diseases, Erciyes University Hospital, between January 2013 and February 2014. The diagnosis of measles was
confirmed by measles specific immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody positivity in serum samples.
Results: Nine patients were included the study. Three patients had a co-morbid condition including hematopoietic stem
cell transplantation, pregnancy and diabetes mellitus. Four of the patients had hepatitis and one of them had pneumonia
as a complication.
Conclusion: Susceptible population, especially immunocompromised people are still at risk about measles. Adherence
to universal vaccination programs is determinative in terms of breaking out of an outbreak. J Microbiol Infect Dis
2016;6(1): 19-22.
