Prepubertal kızlarda en sık görülen jinekolojik problem vulvovajinal enfeksiyonlardır. Bu retrospektif çalışmada üniversite hastanemizin çocuk polikliniğinde Ocak 2014-Ocak 2019 tarihleri arasında prepubertal vulvovajinit tanısı alan hastaların kayıtları incelendi. 46 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Çocukların yaş ortalaması 82±37.6 ay idi. 9 hastada (%19.6) üreme gözlenmedi. Cilt ve vajinal flora üyesi olan mikroorganizmalar 6 hastada (34.8%) pozitif bulundu. Bunlar; 11 hastada (%23.9) koagülaz negative stafilokok, 5 hastada (%10.9) difteroidleridi. E.Coli 11 hastada (%23.9), Streptokokus pyogenes 4 hastada (%8.7), Gardnerella vajinalis 3 hastada (%6.5), Kandid aalbikans 2 hastada (%4.3) ve en az sıklıkla Enterobakter 1 hastada (%2.2) saptandı. Tüm hastalarımız semptomları başladığında değerlendirilmiş, tedavileri ilk başvuru merkezleri tarafından verilmişti. Prepubertal kızlarda kandida vulvovajinit çok nadir görülmekle birlikte tüm hastalarımıza antifungal krem yazılmıştı. Bu yaş grubunda vajinal kültür çoğunlukla negatiftir. Prepubertal yaş grubunda hijyen önlemleriyle tedavi edilen spesifik olmayan vulvovajinitakıldatutulmalıdır. En sık izole edilen patojenler ise bağırsak florası üyeleri ve solunum patojenleridir.

The most common gynecological problem in prepubertal girls is vulvovaginal infections. In this retrospective study, the records of patients who were diagnosed with prepubertal vulvovaginitis between January 2014 and January 2019 in the pediatric outpatient clinic of our university hospital were retrieved. 46 patients were included in the study. The mean age of the children was 82±37.6 months. No growth in culture was observed in 9 patients (19.6%). Microorganisms that are members of the skin and vaginal flora were positive in 16 patients (34.8%). Coagulase negative staphylococcus was positive in 11patients (23.9%), diphtheroids in 5 patients (10.9%), E.coli in 11 patients (23.9%), Streptococcus pyogenes in 4 patients (8.7%), Gardnerella vaginalis in 3 patients (6.5%), Candida albicans in 2 patients (4.3%), least frequently Enterobacter in 1 patient (2.2%). All of our patients were evaluated when their symptoms started and their treatments were given by the first application centers. Candida vulvovaginitis is very rare in prepubertal girls, but antifungal cream was prescribed to all our patients. In this age group, vaginal culture is mostly negative. Nonspecific vulvovaginitis, which is treated with hygiene measures in the prepubertal age group, should be kept in mind. The most frequently isolated pathogens are intestinal flora and respiratory pathogens.
